The exhibition "Clara Schumann and her family - Clara and Robert Schumann in Hamburg" is being held in the foyer of the HfMT until the end of June to mark the 200th anniversary of the birth of Clara Schumann

With autographs, first and early prints of sheet music, some with autograph entries, older books, concert programs, pictures and photos as well as CDs, mainly reproductions, the exhibition illuminates and documents Clara Schumann's complex and multi-layered relationship with her family, above all with her father Friedrich Wieck, her husband Robert Schumann, her children and her half-brother Woldemar Bargiel, but also with Johannes Brahms, the godfather of her youngest son Felix.

Between 1835 and 1881, Clara Wieck and Clara Schumann performed almost 60 times in Hamburg and Altona, in 1842 and 1850 together with her husband Robert and later sometimes with such illustrious colleagues and friends as Johannes Brahms, Jenny Lind, Amalie and Joseph Joachim, Julius Stockhausen, Louis Lee, Ernst Rudorff and Leopold Auer. The concert programs of Clara Wieck and Schumann, which are continuously added to, and some of the photos come from the Robert Schumann House in Zwickau, all other exhibits from the Joachim Draheim Collection, Karlsruhe.
