A Musician’s Solace;

2D Game

Project Synopsis:



'A Musician's Solace' is a 2D dialogue-driven game that helps in educating people about the life of the classical musician Clara Schumann, while also highlighting her contributions to classical music history.  With how classical music history is constantly displayed in media, the focus almost always lies on male musicians and their contributions to musical history. This game is backed up by thorough research on the musician, and gives the player a glimpse into her life, musical achievements, and impact on musical history. Women classical composers are rarely discussed, and as a result, their music is not listened to frequently.

This game starts to change that by bringing a woman classical musician in media.
