“Unrequited” is a musical retelling of the love story between Clara Schumann and Johannes Brahms, whose famed letters reveal how deeply they cared for one another despite being separated. In our retelling, Clara and Johannes speak to one another through music across a chasm, vividly portrayed by Kaija Saariaho and brought to life by soprano Katharine Dain.
“I would gladly write to you only by means of music, but I have things to say to you to-day which music
could not express.”
