Eichel:Clara

Hannah Schmidt from SWR Kultur says: "Christine Eichel describes Clara Schumann's development from early childhood to her death with great empathy, sharp feminist, psychological, and sociological analysis, and an enormous narrative power. [...] Clara is a must-read for all ambitious music enthusiasts." Deutschlandfunk "Musikjournal" states: "Excellently told." rbb24 Inforadio comments: "Clara reads fresh and creates a pull, well-measured in the musical explanations, with aphoristic sharpness, and courage for one's own judgment." CICERO notes: "Christine Eichel approaches this exceptional artist of the 19th century in a personal and emotional way, not at all in a dry musicological manner." WDR5 "Scala" says: "Christine Eichel tells the life of Clara Schumann as a story of impressive emancipation." GRAZIA remarks: "The author describes Clara's journey, her triumphs and defeats, so compellingly modern that one is left shockingly enamored.".
