Schubert is one of the most loved and least understood of the great composers. This wise and searching book aims to provide the key to the man and to his music. The author loves his subject, has studied Schubert's life and works for many years and writes most evocatively. The book's freshness of perception will open the eyes of many who are familiar with Schubert only through a few well-known works. Although this is no srict biography, all the details of Schubert's tragically curtailed life are here; but Dr Gal's main concern is with the character of the composer and of his music. First, the music: for Schubert, Song was Alpha and Omega, and he poured forth an inexhaustible stream of rapt melody--poetry in sound. The profusion of melodic ideas is such that one gladly excuses his initial unwillingness to master instrumental, and indeed symphonic and contrapuntal, style. Dr Gal examines Schubert's relation to his contemporaries (particularly Beethoven) and lays stress on his creation of the lied and on his exclusively Viennese background. We are given insights into his method of work (everything was composed in great haste) and we see how he tackled the manifold problems of setting verse, and begin to sense the reasons which drove him to explore extreme tonal relationships and the symbolic potential of major and minor keys. Dr Gal pinpoints weaknesses in technique and approach, and examines the risks that seemed to be inherent in Schubert's character. He finds the large number of unfinished works significant. Schubert sometimes gave up too easily: new inspirations burst upon him so frequently that they crowded out time which might have been spent refining or wrestling with yesterday's ideas. Shy and modest, he also failed to "push" his own works when completed. In addition intense melancholy underlay a serene exterior: his words and letters failed to reveal to his friends depths of grief and profundity of thought which emerge only in his music--often side by side with passages of radiant sunshine: such was the complexity of the man. Schubert's music is loved by both performers and listeners. This book, with its deep understanding that sheds light on so much that is felt but not fully comprehended, will give immense pleasure, both for the memories it conjures in the mind of the reader, and in the knowledge and wisdom it imparts [Publisher description]

Franz Schubert (1797-1828) is now rightly recognized as one of the greatest and most original composers of the nineteenth century. His keen understanding of poetry and his uncanny ability to translate his profound understanding of human nature into remarkably balanced compositions marks him out from other contemporaries in the field of song. Schubert was one of the first major composers to devote so much time to song and his awareness that this genre was not rated highly in the musical hierarchy did not deter him, throughout a short but resolute and hard-working career, from producing songs that invariably arrest attention and frequently strike a deeply poetic note. Schubert did not emerge as a composer until after his death, but during his short lifetime his genius flowered prolifically and diversely. His reputation was first established among the aristocracy who took the art music of Vienna into their homes, which became places of refuge from the musical mediocrity of popular performance. More than any other composer, Schubert steadily graced Viennese musical life with his songs, piano music and chamber compositions. Throughout his career he experimented constantly with technique and in his final years began experiments with form. The resultant fascinating works were never performed in his lifetime, and only in recent years have the nature of his experiments found scholarly favor. In The Unknown Schubert contributors explore Schubert's radical modernity from a number of perspectives by examining both popular and neglected works. Chapters by renowned scholars describe the historical context of his work, its relation to the dominant artistic discourses of the early nineteenth century, and Schubert's role in the paradigmatic shift to a new perception of song. This valuable book seeks to bring Franz Schubert to life, exploring his early years as a composer of opera, his later years of ill-health when he composed in the shadow of death, and his efforts to reflect i

Music scholarship's views of Franz Schubert's instrumental works continue to evolve. How might aesthetic values, historiographies, revisions to the composer's biography, and disciplinary commitments affect how we interpret his music? Schubert's Instrumental Music and Poetics of Interpretation explores the aesthetic positions and operations that underlie critical assessments of Schubert's instrumental works. In six chapters, each devoted to one or two of Schubert's pieces, René Rusch examines the conditions that have prompted scholarship to reevaluate the composer's music and legacy, considers how different conclusions about his music may be reflective of certain aesthetic values, investigates the role of narrative in both music analysis and constructions of history, and explores alternative forms of coherence through updated analyses of the composer's instrumental works. Rusch's observations and comparative analyses address four significant areas of scholarly focus in Schubert studies, including his approach to chromaticism, his unique musical forms, the relationship between his music and biography, and the influence of Beethoven. Drawing from a range of philosophical, hermeneutic, historical, biographical, theoretical, and analytical sources, Schubert's Instrumental Music and Poetics of Interpretation offers readers a unique and innovative foray into the poetics of contemporary analyses of Schubert's instrumental music and develops new ways to engage with his repertoire.

As Robert Schumann put it, 'Only few works are as clearly stamped with their author's imprint as his'. This book explores Schubert's stylistic traits in a series of chapters each discussing an individual 'fingerprint' with case studies drawn principally from the piano and chamber music. The notion of Schubert's compositional fingerprints has not previously formed the subject of a book-length study. The features of his personal style considered here include musical manifestations of Schubert's 'violent nature', the characteristics of his thematic material, and the signs of his 'classicizing' manner. In the process of the discussion, attention is given to matters of form, texture, harmony and gesture in a range of works, with regard to the various 'fingerprints' identified in each chapter. The repertoire discussed includes the late string quartets, the String Quintet, the E flat Piano Trio and the last three piano sonatas. Developing ideas which she first proposed in a series of journal articles and contributions to symposia on Schubert, Professor Wollenberg takes into account recent literature by other scholars and draws together her own researches to present her view of Schubert's 'compositional personality'. Schubert emerges as someone exerting intellectual control over his musical material and imbuing it with poetic resonance.
