Joseph
Schubert, born in
Warnsdorf (Bohemia) in
1757, is related neither
to his famous namesake,
Franz Schubert, nor to
the well-known musical
family of Dresden (Davis,
Franz Anton, Franz and
Georgine Schubert). He
received his first
musical instruction from
his father, a curator by
profession. Then, after
moving to Prague and
Berlin, he developed his
knowledge of violin and
viola playing, as well as
of composition. In 1779
he entered the service of
the Markgraf of Schwerin
as a viola player. He
lived in Dresden from
1788, where he died on 28
July 1837, at the age of
80. In Gerber's volume
Historisch-biographisches
Laxicon der Tonkunstler
(Leipzig 1790/92) his
work in highly esteemed.
Among his most important
works are four operas,
masses, piano works,
chamber music and
concertos. Gerber knew of
over forty-nine
concertos. Among his
published works the
designation opus 1 was
given to two works; a set
of three violin dous and
the present concerto for
flute and orchestra.
