13 January 🖋 Clara Schumann — Three Romances, Op. 22 I. Andante molto “There is no greater joy than creating,” Clara Schumann once wrote. Her time was rarely her own — but when she found a moment, she sat at the piano and composed. Sometimes just a note. Sometimes, eternity condensed into a few bars. She was more than one of the great pianists of the 19th century. Clara was a composer, a teacher, a mother of eight, a wife, and an inspiration to Chopin, Liszt, and Brahms. Critics said even her simplest performances carried a soul. Even after personal tragedies and heavy burdens, she kept writing — piano works, chamber music, art songs. The piano was her escape and her return, her space for tenderness, strength, and silent beauty. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JH1miZzWZ2I&list=PLalx8qOygDw4WY13p1F8xlbFZmK5qdXQS&index=13

12 January 🌞 Felix Mendelssohn — Octet in E-flat Major, Op. 20 I. Allegro moderato ma con fuoco 🎁 Some people give books. Others, wine or scarves. Mendelssohn, at 16, gave his friend a birthday present like no other — a full-blown, symphonic-grade Octet. He wrote it for Eduard Rietz, his close friend and violin teacher. Writing for eight string players is no small task — but Mendelssohn turned it into magic. The voices blend like a miniature symphony, yet each instrument keeps its own spirit. Later, Mendelssohn said he loved this piece. And you can feel it: the joy, the vitality, the grace. This isn’t just a gift — it’s a celebration of friendship, youth, and pure musical fire. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MnkFazq0FI&list=PLalx8qOygDw4WY13p1F8xlbFZmK5qdXQS&index=12
