Helene Grimaud Reflection (2 LP)

With "Reflection" Helene Grimaud sheds musical light on one of the most infamous love triangles in musical history. The album reflects the close personal and musical relationship between Robert Schumann, his wife Clara, and their friend Johannes Brahms. Just as in Grimaud's recent Chopin-Rachmaninov recording, this new album explores the themes of love and transfiguration through music.
