Robert Schumann, the most intimate yet the least understood of the Romantic composers of the mid-19th century, has an air of mystery about his music. Oxana Mikhailoff’s and Vassily Primakov’s performance of the Complete Sonatas at the Bronxville Women’s Club will lift the veil of mystery from Schumann’s music. The lecture “Schumann – The Complicated Genius” by musicologist Dr. Lisa Yui is preceding the program.

The pianists of high-acclaim, Mikhailoff and Primakov are well regarded by the critics and the public. American Record Guide compares Primakov’s playing to Gilels’ noting that since “Gilels, how many pianists have the right touch?” Mikhailoff is well-known for her poetic and sensitive style, essential for bringing Schumann’s music to the audience.

The concert promises to be an unforgettable night of music and fun! Join the musicians in the charming setting of the Bronxville Women’s Club. Bring your friends and family for the joy of music!
