She’s well-known as a virtuoso pianist and composer, and creative soulmate of her husband Robert Schumann and former housemate Johannes Brahms.

Friedrich Wieck was a piano teacher who married above his station to one of Leipzig’s leading singers, Marianne Tromlitz. When their second child Clara started showing prodigious musical talent, Friedrich turned into the stereotypical pushy parent, and by the age of 10, she was already being touted by him as a brilliant showpiece for his teaching methods.
He put her onto the concert touring circuit as Europe’s leading piano prodigy. She was so brilliant as a pianist that an 18-year-old aspiring piano virtuoso named Robert Schumann asked for lessons from Friedrich and moved in with the Wiecks for a year.
