Recenzje

'… what the individual essays exemplify is a sense of academic diversity that underpins current ways of thinking about Schumann-Wieck and his world. In doing so, they break ground not only in relation to Clara Schumann, but in relation to women in music in general.' Juan Carlos Tellechea, Bibliographic Reviews
