Biography
Franz Peter Schubert was an Austrian composer of the late Classical and early Romantic eras. Despite his short 28 year lifetime, 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 Piano Quintet in A major, D. 667 (Trout Quintet), the Symphony No. 8 in B minor, D. 759 (Unfinished Symphony), the three last piano sonatas (D. 958–960), the opera Fierrabras (D. 796), the incidental music to the play Rosamunde (D. 797), and the song cycles Die schöne Müllerin (D. 795) and Winterreise (D. 911)
Selected Works for Piano
"Der Erlkönig" D 328 (Op. 1) 1815 Philippe Sly: Bass-Baritone, Maria Fuller: piano (4:00)
"The Erlking" was Schubert's first published piece of music (1818). It is a lied based
on a 1782 proto-romantic work by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe in which a
young boy is attacked by mysterious forces and dies. Schubert was one of the very
best composers of lieder.
Franz Liszt made a well-known piano transcription of Schubert's work in 1860.
