The Piano Concerto by Robert Schumann
Schumann’s concerto, composed between 1841 and 1845 and created on the piano by Clara Schumann, the composers wife, is a masterpiece in its diversity and the beauty of the melodic themes that make it up.

Concert Program:
• Two chorales by Johann Sebastian Bach – piano
• Adagio from the sonata for violin and piano BWV 1016 by Jean-Sébastien Bach
• Piano Concerto in A Minor by Robert Schumann, reinterpreted for two pianos
• Two "Rêveries d'automne" by JP Menin, dedicated and composed in 1980 for his daughter Laure
