Sonia Eckhardt-Gramatté defied poverty, prejudice and the politics of two world wars to become one of the most intriguing composers of the 20th Century. Appassionata spans the years from her mysterious origins in Russia to her tragic death in Germany, and explores the two constants in her turbulent life: her fierce determination to succeed in a male sphere of artistry and her intense passion for the two husbands who inspired her career.
