Franz Schubert (1797-1828) |
||||||||
Throughout
his childhood Franz Schubert developed a dedication to music
and studied piano, organ, violin and singing. By 1814 he had
already produced a lot of work, including piano pieces, string
quartets, his first symphony and a three act opera. In 1822 he got infected by syphilis and was in deep financial needs, marking this time as a dark period. But Schubert still kept creating new work like "Schöne Müllerin" the "Eighth Symphony ("unfinished")" and a string Quartet d Minor ("Death and the Maiden"). Although he was known at his time as a songwriter, his work included a lot of Symphonies, String Quartets, piano sonatas and more. |
