Titled “The Poet Speaks: An Exploration of Schumann’s Piano Music,” the event will see Musgrave perform and briefly explain, employing Schumann’s own commentary (the maestro was a himself a music critic), a selection of several of the composer’s short pieces.

He received an Honorary Fellowship from the college in 2005.
