| Added by magataganm, 19 Oct 2023 Franz Peter Schubert (1797 – 1828) was an Austrian composer of the late Classical and early Romantic eras. Despite his short life, Schubert left behind a vast oeuvre, including more than 600 secular vocal works (mainly lieder), seven complete symphonies, sacred music, operas, incidental music, and a large body of piano and chamber music. His major works include the art song "Erlkönig", the Piano Trout Quintet in A major, the unfinished Symphony No. 8 in B minor, the "Great" Symphony No. 9 in C major, a String Quintet, the three last piano sonatas, the opera Fierrabras, the incidental music to the play Rosamunde, and the song cycles Die schöne Müllerin and Winterreise. He was remarkably prolific, writing over 1,500 works in his short career. His compositional style progressed rapidly throughout his short life. The largest number of his compositions are songs for solo voice and piano (roughly 630). Schubert also composed a considerable number of secular works for two or more voices, namely part songs, choruses and cantatas. He completed eight orchestral overtures and seven complete symphonies, in addition to fragments of six others. While he composed no concertos, he did write three concertante works for violin and orchestra. Schubert wrote a large body of music for solo piano, including eleven incontrovertibly completed sonatas and at least eleven more in varying states of completion, numerous miscellaneous works and many short dances, in addition to producing a large set of works for piano four hands. He also wrote over fifty chamber works, including some fragmentary works. Schubert's sacred output includes seven masses, one oratorio and one requiem, among other mass movements and numerous smaller compositions. He completed only eleven of his twenty stage works. "Auf dem Strom" ("On the River") D.943 Op. 119, was written in 1828 – based upon a text by Ludwig Rellstab. It was a work composed for a concert of his own music on March 26, 1828 – the first anniversary of Ludwig von Beethoven’s death. Amazingly, this was the first public concert to feature solely the music of Schubert, and sadly, this was to be the year of Schubert’s own death. The landmark concert proved to be both a musical and financial success. It is noted that the second entry of the tenor contains an allusion to the funeral march from Beethoven's "Eroica" Symphony, which may bear a subliminal dedication to Ludwig van Beethoven. Much of Schubert’s fame rests upon his treatment of the German lied, bringing it to the status of an ‘art’ song and thereby making the art song one of the primary vehicles of the German Romantic composer. Schubert’s poignant textures and his synthesis of text and music set the stage for European song composers for the rest of the 19th century. Auf dem Strom was originally written for tenor voice, horn and piano. Schubert’s use of the French horn as an obbligato part in Auf dem Strom is unique among his songs.
