Brahms Experience: Johannes Brahms (1833-1897)
Episode 2 of 5: Brahms to the Rescue

After Robert Schumann attempted to take his life by hurling himself into swirling waters of the River Rhine, Brahms rushed to comfort Clara, and offer all the emotional support and practical assistance of which he was capable. Donald Macleod continues the story of their friendship, as we find the young composer steadily falling in love with the woman he admired. For her part, we find Clara coming to depend on his support, and his invigorating company, and admitting him into the tiny company of those she was prepared to address as 'Du' rather than 'Sie'.
