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.

"Schwanengesang" (Swan song D957) and "Selige Welt" (Blessed world D743) are from poems which are not found in Johann Senn's published Gedichte. There is good reason to believe that they were brought back to Schubert in manuscript by his friend Franz von Bruchmann who visited Senn (exiled in his native Tyrol for alleged political offences) in the autumn of 1822. Schubert had been at school with the poet, and sympathised with his anti-authoritarian views. The settings were published in August 1823 as part of an opus which also included a bitter song of disillusionment in love (Platen's Die Liebe hat gelogen) and Schatzgräbers Begehr by Schober in which the treasure hunter digs his own grave and longs to lie in it. There is nothing to prove that Schubert set the Senn poems immediately on receipt of them. We have no firm dates for any of the Opus 23 Lieder and it may well be that some of these dark songs, and Schwanengesang in particular, were composed in the spring of 1823. They would thus be contemporary with Schubert's health crisis and the poem entitled 'My Prayer' (quoted, in part, in the introduction). The longing for destruction in order to find transfiguration in Senn's poem finds an exact echo with the end of Schubert's. The composer had become, in his own way, as much an establishment outcast and exile as Senn. Not only are the poet's words 'presentiment of death', and the 'dissolution that flows through my limbs', uncomfortably near the composer's own circumstances, but the music itself has a poignancy and immediacy which suggests a heightened subjective response. The song shares the alla breva's pace of Der Tod und das Mädchen (the death motif rhythm is invoked); but these two gigantic miniatures stand at opposite poles. In the Claudius setting the mastery of death is in the inhuman ease and gliding simplicity of his harmony; the Senn setting bristles with the tortured chromaticism of vulnerability and human emotion. There is a positively Wagnerian moment on the word 'auflösend' where an unusually dense bank of accidentals flattens and dissolves the harmony, an illustration of both the word's significance in the poem, and its technical meaning in musical theory for the resolving of a suspension or discord. The music rages less against the dying of the light than shows a steely determination that the singing will be ever more striking as the light fails. In August 1823, just after the publication of the Opus 23 songs, Schubert wrote to Schober, 'I rather doubt whether I shall ever be well again'. Whether Schwanengesang was written just before or during Schubert's crisis, it sounds like a wounded bird's promise to sing ceaselessly for the time left to him. The song of Oscar Wilde's nightingale, with his heart pressed against the rose thorn of life, could not have been more heart-rending.
