Robert Schumann wrote a declaration of love for Clara in his early music.
For this project we have taken one of his most famous works, Fantasiestücke Op.12 and created a 30-minute dance film.
The three dancers and the pianist tell the story of how Schumann's two alter egos, Eusebius-the mild, and Florestan-the wild fight for Clara's attention.
Which of Schumann's two passionate sides will she choose?
The film is currently being edited, and is due for release in January 2026.
