Class Description
She was not only a divine pianist, talented composer, and successful teacher, but also a mother of eight and the main breadwinner in her family. In the male-dominated nineteenth century, German superwoman Clara Schumann did it all while juggling a sixty-one-year concert career that made her internationally famous. Join German historian Anette Isaacs for an intimate look at the life of the very exceptional Clara Virtuosa!
German born and raised Anette Isaacs is a historian and public educator who currently serves as the Director of Lifelong Learning at Florida International University in Miami.
