Together with my colleague Hanne Muthspiel-Payer, I develop short scenes with the students that show the marriage life of the couple Clara and Robert Schumann.

The 1-hour performance is associated with various pieces of the music of Clara and Robert Schumann, played by musicians of the Vienna Philharmonic. The performance takes place as a work introduction for other Viennese high school classes in the Musikverein Wien.
