CREATIVE CUTS - The Ladies

At 2pm July 12 Lucas Parklands will present its annual concert to celebrate high achieving female artists.This year’s performance will feature music written by two outstanding musicians Clara Schumann (Robert Schumann’s wife) and Lili Boulanger.

Sadly, despite their genius both women struggled for recognition throughout their lives. Their struggle for recognition typifies the ‘male-dominated culture of the day’.

Clara is now considered to be the greatest female pianist of the Romantic Era and certainly more accomplished than her famous husband Robert Schumann. And Lili Boulanger’s music has only recently been fully appreciated.

To present this concert Lucas Parklands has invited two brilliant musicians. New Zealand based violinist Amalia Hall will be joined by the wonderful South African pianist Berta Brozgul. Their only Australian appearance together.
