School Concert – Clara – No One Silences Me Now!
Get to know the remarkable Clara Schumann.
For lower secondary school.
Clara – No One Silences Me Now! is a brand-new production aimed at schoolchildren in the middle years (ages 10–12). The Clara in question is the renowned pianist and composer Clara Schumann. She lived and worked in the 19th century, but now she travels through time to the present day on a mysterious mission. Clara finds herself at a concert in Konserthuset, with Ayla Kabaca as presenter. Before returning to the 1800s, Clara is determined to hear music by both her friends and herself.
The performance Clara – No One Silences Me Now! features music by female composers past and present, including a newly composed piece by Tebogo Monnakgotla, this season’s composer-in-residence at Konserthuset. Marie Rosenmir conducts the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, and Clara Schumann is portrayed by Natalie Gourman Syberg.
