Introduction

Franz Schubert

1797-1828

Composer from Austria, Franz Schubert was born in Vienna, one of fourteen children. He has been called "the last of the Classical composers and the first of the Romantics." He composed under the same styles and patterns of the Classical Era, but altered them to fit his own purpose and desires into Romantic Era characteristics. He wrote many astonishing pieces for string quartets, sonatas, and symphonies, which now are ranked with those of Mozart and Beethoven. His waltzes, moments musicaux, and impromptus set the pattern for the many short pieces of the Romantic composers-to-come, such as Schumann, Mendelssohn, and the piano great Frederic Chopin. Throughout his short lifetime, Schubert wrote an incredible amount of masterworks: more than 600 songs, nine symphonies (his eighth stands forever unfinished), a vast body of chamber music, quite a few operas, and innumerable piano pieces for two or four hands.

Sadly enough, Franz Schubert never met fame and fortune during his lifetime, in fact, he often suffered in the pit of poverty. Even though he wrote several operas, none were successful enough to be performed on stage and earn him money. The first six of his nine symphonies were written for an amateur orchestra, and the ones that were considered the greatest (his ninth) and his most famous (his eighth, or "Unfinished"), were not performed until after Schubert passed away. Even his astounding piano works were not discovered during his lifetime.

Schubert was a popular man, no doubt, because of his many friends, who helped him through the lean times. His artsy acquaintances invited him to play his music at painting shows at cafés. Other times, he and his friends would get together to throw a big party, where Schubert played his latest works, in addition to the parties dancing and singing. However, this still did not attract the public to his works. In addition to those little works, even his few operas never quite caught on. But because of his uniqueness in his little songs, no one could compete against those dainty masterpieces. His melodies were often for the piano, as he had the true talent of creating harmonic combinations, pleasantly waking the sleepy ear of the listener.

Although his works were not as successful during his life as the greats of previous composers during their lives, he truly showed a respect for the legends before him. He looked up to Beethoven, the father of the Romantic Era, with a tremendous amount of inspiration, motivating Schubert to follow in his footsteps, and to try to become a pat of the legacy. Although Schubert lived in the same city as Beethoven while they both were still alive, Franz was too shy to meet and talk to him, at the same time Beethoven was too preoccupied to think of inviting a younger man. Thus, the two men never met, but Franz Schubert was at Beethoven's funeral, as a coffin-bearer. And as he requested, Franz himself was buried close to the great composer before him after dying from syphilis and a typhoid fever. Schubert once remarked to a friend, "Who can do anything after Beethoven?" Little did he know that he did plenty after Beethoven.
