Brahms and Clara Schumann Affair: The affair Brahms for Clara Schumann a sizzling left a mess life in chaos and his music filled with yearning..
In 1855 Johannes Brahms wrote the pianist Clara Schumann cry of frustration naked: "? Can not I can do nothing but think of you ... What you have done to me you remove the spell you cast over me?" Between them at the time the situation was messy - very messy. Clara 35, Brahms 21, famous she is, rather more infamous. She was married to composer Robert Schumann, and the two were seven young children. On the other hand, for more than one year, asylum husband Clara and Clara were not allowed to see him. When Robert fell off the edge, Brahms had hastened to his side.
Now, Brahms, protege Robert and discovery, helplessly in love with Robert woman. They did not expect it, did not want it, and so on. Robert Brahms loved and appreciated. Shortly before jumping into the Rhine to escape from the demonic oratorios one, Robert had made the name Brahms known throughout Europe, declaring the student from Hamburg the next savior of German music.
Brahms, meanwhile, lived Clara and the children - separate bedroom floor, to be sure, but spent most of his time comfort her, help with the kids, and getting almost out of his mind with yearning.
In the years Brahms was slim, beardless and drop dead handsome. Gossip was sizzling in music circles. Clara was yearning mightily, too, but Brahms was tangled up with feelings of anxiety and guilt. Robert and Clara had, after all, the supreme love of music of the Romantic period. Clara was the love life of Robert, her main musical, heroic force was held together a mind splintering longer than anyone could imagine.
After a long decline, Robert died in 1856, and were Brahms and Clara Free declare their passion, to marry. The couple went on holiday to Switzerland to sort it all out. Exactly what he said to her we will never know, but this amounted to: Cheerio. I'm off to Hamburg. Write if you get work.
Clara put him on the train trip home, and told her journal: ". I felt as if I returned from the funeral of" Daughter Eugenie later said that Clara could never understand why Brahms ruthlessly turned on away. Clara took her acting work with a vengeance; solace and, she would inform Brahms, "the breath of my body."
Greater ironies in the first and most, if not exactly the last love of Brahms's life. If you do not marry Clara would not marry anyone else - in his heart he could never leave Clara, do it. For the rest of their lives that they would maintain their links strange but inevitable. They spent holidays together. They hugged and kissed.
Love can not be consummated. It may seem absurd. But the times were different: no birth control, many of disease. Women should shunned affairs. In subsequent years, Brahms told an acquaintance that he was never in danger of a respectable woman, and it was the definition of a respectable woman Clara. He described the earliest age of Clara with a friend so: "virginal ever."
It is hardly a question of Brahms and Clara to be sexless. Brahms famously spent prostitutes; for his purposes, and he relegate diversity to sex professionals. During his marriage to Clara had kept and Robert a kind of diary sexual shorthand, for medical reasons, they showed startlingly active throughout. Recall the seven children. And several years later had recently Clara, satisfied with Theodor Kirchner affair, one of the best Brahms friends. Promote this business was not until recent years, and as far as not know Brahms doubt. At one point he wrote that Clara that Kirchner was talking about a kill. Never mind, Clara replied, he says all the time. We can assume that this was after the affair.
In short, it was a splendid mess. What seems to have motivated the rest of the world of Brahms, romantic and otherwise, no more mess. Keep it for the life of the compositions and performances, fought with his friends, tried with imperfect success to keep the women at bay, and real-life drama fled whenever he appeared. But the real mess, and one big, own version inside Brahms, emotional relationships with women and life in general.
Chaos, nature probably began sharing time sensitive. At age 13, Brahms was already a phenomenon, their best teachers predicting things. His parents were supportive, but they were limited and naive. At some point money was short, so the boy was to earn to keep playing piano in several waterfront establishments, where his father worked in their youth. Maybe these places had something of a lark with the father. They did not Brahms.
Popular with sailors, the joints with services bar restaurant dance hall and brothel. Brahms was delicately pretty and bad things happened to him in the bars. Mostly it only hinted at what they were (among others Clara), but for the rest of his life he spoke, rage and anguish and sometimes with intense pride, for having survived. He steeled, he said. And this is true. Brahms achieved maturity tough as nails.
He said that the experiences of women struck him. One night, in his cups, he broke up a party with all women branding word so sordid that any person again. Delegate to be a friend to sober him up in pitch, Brahms raved: ". You told me I should have the same respect, the same homage exalted for women which you expect that you are the youngest man cursed like mine. "
Our terms, the German culture was time misogynistic well. Brahms was more than that. It relegated sexuality prostitutes, always joked lady musicians. One woman recalled watching him at a party, stroking her mustache and leering at the girls "as a greedy boy stares at jam tartlets".
But if you happened to be female and happened to have talent, no one would you rather have in your corner than Brahms. For some performers, female gave extravagantly part time and money and influence. One was the violinist Marie Soldat, he put out to teens to study with his friend Joachim. When 20 by Soldat feeling in Vienna Violin Concerto, Brahms heard shouting from the balcony: "Could not hold her own with 10 men?" Was it love Marie? Probably. How did she squire? He took it fairly Vienna Prater fun for the merry-go-round and a puppet show.
So, Brahms shared paradoxically on women, because it was about a lot of things. He fell in love after Clara periodically, usually with singers. Firstly, Agathe, he rings, but then she put a brutal note: ". I love you ... But I can not wear chains" Agathe was not the kind you write your. She broke it off and grieved for years. He admitted to friends: "I was the scoundrel Agathe."
Brahms understanding and unsentimental clarity sharing nature. He was in their romantic classicising, the loner who was a creature of the musical mainstream artist backward-looking to anticipate and encourage the future of music. Brahms women scorned and love them and fled from them, but inescapably necessary.
Whether chaos in mind Brahms ("chaos" is the word itself, describing his feelings as a teenager), negotiated his life with extraordinary discipline, common sense, integrity and honesty. The chaos of emotion shackled and subdued relentless sense of form and discipline: the art of Brahms in a nutshell. Likewise, his life. And the most popular and beloved in his note art yearning Note....

This is the most poorly written mess I have ever witnessed
This is not English. Anyhow, the text stands just above any Google machine translated document.
The writing doesn't reveal any minimum of nobility required for the field.
