May 1841, and Clara Schumann
could hear her husband at work on
his Fourth Symphony. “I know it is
emerging from the bottom of his heart’
she wrote.” In fact, her husband was
writing Clara into the piece: in the
delicately winding string and
bassoon theme of the work’s opening,
Schumann purposefully captured their
fragile but heartfelt love. The distinct,
mature colouring of Brahms’s final
symphony brings our season-long
double portrait of Brahms and
Schumann to a close.
