Portrait of one of the most important female pianists of the 20th century
"The artist, marked by a physical ailment which she bravely resisted, was, with all due reverence, confined to the prison of her decrepitude.
Highly concentrated, almost detached from the world, Clara Haskil with great purity and artistry all those works of the Classical and Romanticism that she was physically equal to."
- Joachim Kaiser
