Clara Schumann (1819 – 1896) was a German pianist and composer who is considered one of the most influential musicians of the Romantic era. A child prodigy, she began touring at age 11 and continued to perform into her 70s. She was also a renowned piano teacher, and mentored Johannes Brahms early in his career. Her husband, Robert Schumann, was himself a noted composer.
