Leonard Borwick works the piano with Clara Schumann, of 1883 to 1889, with Frankfurt, in Germany. He makes his beginnings in this city, in 1889. He returns then to England, then carries out a series of triumphal rounds in France, in Germany, and in all Europe (in particular in Scandinavia). In 1911, he undertakes a great round in America and Australia. Whereas a long time its vast repertory covers the period of Jean-Sebastien Bach until Johannes Brahms (with a certain predilection for the music of Robert Schumann), it is interested in the end of its life to the French music of its time (Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel).
