BOOK LAUNCH - ROBERT SILVERMAN/ Schumann, Vienna and the Cat

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 1, 7:00PM at the JCCROBERT SILVERMAN/ Schumann, Vienna and the CatIn Conversation with DAVID LEMON Robert Schumann - one of the most imaginative figures of the Romantic era - and concert pianist Robert Silverman: in both lives, brief but psychologically complex sojourns in Vienna became decisive crucibles, testing ambition against reality and shaping the emergence of fully formed artistic identities.Their two stories unfold in counterpoint in Schumann, Vienna, and the Cat, illuminating one another across time. The result is neither conventional biography, memoir, nor purely technical musical analysis, but a meditation in two voices on artistic maturity, self-scrutiny, and the long journey toward integration.BOOKS WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR SALE AND ROBERT WILL BE SIGNING.
