Book excerpt: Of all the great composers, none - not even Mozart - has been so dogged by myth and misunderstanding as Franz Schubert. The notion of Schubert as a pudgy, lovelorn Bohemian schwammerl (mushroom) scribbling tunes on the back of menus in idle moments has never quite been eradicated. In this major new biography, Brian Newbould balances discussion of Schubert's compositions with an exploration of biographical influences that shaped his musical aesthetics. Schubert: The Music and the Man offers an eminently readable description of a musician who was compulsively dedicated to his art - a composer so prolific that he produced over a thousand works in eighteen years. Gifted with an intuitive know-how, coupled with a Mozartian facility for composition, Schubert combined the relish and wonder of an amateur with the discipline and technical rigor of a professional. He moved quickly and comfortably among genres, and sometimes composed directly into score but many pieces required painstaking revision before they satisfied his growing self-criticism. Examining afresh the enigmas surrounding Schubert's religious outlook, his loves, his sexuality, his illness and death, Newbould offers above all a celebration of a unique genius, an idiosyncratic composer of an astonishing body of powerful, enduring music.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Schubert, the Man: Translated From the German The international character of the Schubert Centenary makes it opportune to present this biographical work by Oscar Bie, translated into English. Intrinsically the book is an admirable study of Schubert the man, combining sympathy with scholarship. It possesses additional weight as the Centennial biography, since it fills the long-felt want for a non-technical study, competent on the musical side and in scope wide enough to merit the interest and appreciation of the layman. Mr. Bie's literary distinction and musical knowl edge have been amply demonstrated in his books on the opera, the dance, and the history of music - the majority of which have been translated into English.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vienna in which Franz Schubert lived for the thirty-one years of his life was not just a city of music, dance, and coffeehouses - a centre of important achievements in the arts. It was also the capital of an empire that was constantly at war in the composer's youth and that became a police state during his maturity.

Download or read book Franz Schubert written by Elizabeth Norman McKay and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his short, tumultuous life, Franz Schubert (1797-1828) produced an astonishing amount of music. Symphonies, chamber music, opera, church music, and songs (more than 600 of them) poured forth in profusion. His "Trout" Quintet, his "Unfinished" Symphony, the last three piano sonatas, and above all his song cycles Die Schone Mullerin and Winterreise have come to be universally regarded as belonging to the very greatest works of music? Who was the man who composed this amazing succession of masterpieces, so many of which were either entirely ignored or regarded as failures during his lifetime? In this new biography, Elizabeth McKay paints a vivid portrait of Schubert and his world. She explores his family background, his education and musical upbringing, his friendships, and his brushes and flirtations with the repressive authorities of Church and State. She discusses his experience of the arts, literature, and theater, and his relations with the professional and amateur musical world of his day. She traces the way Schubert's manic-depression became an increasingly significant influence in his life, responsible at least in part for social inadequacies, professional ineptitude, and idiosyncrasies in his music. And she examines Schubert's decline after he contracted syphilis, looking at its effect on his music and emotional life.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Franz Schubert: The Man and His Circle T should be made clear at the outset that this is not a I book on the music of Schubert, nor an attempt to deal with his music in a technical or analytical form. It is an endeavor to portray the man Franz Schubert in the light of recent research - the man who left the world a rich heritage of considerably more than a thousand works of extreme brilliance, and who received in return 575 as the sum total of his life's earnings. The story of great musicians is replete with tragedy. But it is doubtful if Schubert realized the measure of his tragedy, unless in his closing days. It is doubtful if ever he starved. His poverty was a continual plague which yet permitted him to live. Only the passage of a hundred years has revealed the depth Of his tragedy. This little man, only 5 ft. I in. In height, had no tongue that gave expression to his personality. He was hindered by shyness so extreme that he withdrew to a corner when an admiring public gave adulation to the singer and for got the maker of the song. But in Schubert lay a person ality so forceful and magical that it drew about him one of the most brilliant circles in musical history. I am indebted to Professor Otto Erich Deutsch, of Vienna, the greatest Schubertian scholar of the age, for much information. He generously placed at my disposal a vast amount Of data and documentary evidence which he had discovered and accumulated in his researches.

Download or read book Schubert written by Joseph Wechsberg and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To this day, Schubert remains something of an enigma, despite the wealth of literature about him. Did he write the 'philistine sonatas' attributed to him by Richard Wagner, or did he have the 'divine spark' which Beethoven recognized in him? Was he the 'cosy Biedermeier character' of Vienna, known to his friends as 'little mushroom', or was he something else--a genius unrecognized? Inspired by his own love of performing Schubert's chamber and instrumental works, the author goes behind the commercially exploited myth of the 'jolly drinking companion', to portray another Schubert, the man who stood between two worlds--the Classican and the Romantic--and who realised works of extraordinary meoldic beauty. He traces Schubert's development as man and musician against an historical and social framework; from his birth in 1797 in war-shadowed Vienna, through his prolific career as composter, to his death of typhus fever at the early age of thirty-one. The portrait emerges is that of the man revealed through his music: 'a complex, sympathetic, always very real human being, a difficult man and an honest artist'.
