Schumann’s ‘year of chamber music’, 1842, yielded some of his most beloved works including the gorgeous and revolutionary Piano Quartet in E flat. In the opening concert of Musica Viva’s 2021 Melbourne Morning Masters Season, rising pianist Adam McMillan joins members of the acclaimed Penny and Partridge quartets to perform this great Schumann masterwork alongside a crystalline piece for piano quartet by Australia’s Andrew Ford.
