Pianist David Kadouch has lost count of the number of times he has had to talk about, or hear about, the love triangle between Robert Schumann, Clara Schumann, and Johannes Brahms; or Beethoven's Immortal Beloved. It's time to talk about other love stories that had just as much influence on the way these composers created their music. On this album, you will hear seven composers who, in their daily lives, could not be themselves. The music they have composed is a veritable refuge where the notes free themselves from words to reveal the essence of their feelings.
