Franz Peter Schubert (1797 – 1828) was an Austrian composer of the late Classical and early Romantic eras. Despite his short lifetime, Schubert left behind a vast oeuvre, and today is ranked among the greatest composers of Western classical music.
Schubert was one of my earliest childhood favorites. I loved his works then and still do today. Oh, and today! Pinkas Zukerman at the symphony! He’ll be doing a Beethoven’s 3rd violin concerto, and it is going to be absolutely awesome! Have a wonderful Sunday. 🙂
