One of the Musikverein's highlights this season is Clara Schumann's flower album. She kept dried flowers in this little book and gave it, with a personal dedication, to her dear friend, Johannes Brahms. Darius Milhaud composed "La cheminée du roi René" for the film "Cavalcade d'amour." His version for woodwind quintet will be performed this evening. Franz Schubert's Introduction and Variations on his song "Trock'ne Blumen" (Dry Flowers) is a highly virtuosic work that he wrote for his circle of friends. In the second part of the concert, the recipient of the flower book himself will speak as a composer: Brahms composed his cheerful first serenade as a nonet for wind and strings.
