The ninth season of the Third@First concert series offers something for everyone: from Schubert to Schumann, from distinguished women composers to outstanding young musicians. Join us for excellent music performed in First United Methodist Church’s historic sanctuary in the Pasadena Playhouse district.
To commemorate Clara Schumann’s passing (September 13, 1819 – May 20, 1896), this program is dedicated to women composers. Regarded as one of the most distinguished pianists of the Romantic era, Clara exerted her influence over the course of a 61-year concert career. Amy Beach (1867 – 1944) was the first successful American female composer of large-scale art music. She was one of the first American composers to succeed without the benefit of European training.
