Why This CD Matters
This compilation samples Franz Schubert’s music across symphonies, piano works, and chamber music. It moves from the brooding drama of the “Unfinished” Symphony to the lyrical piano pieces and variations from the “Trout” Quintet. The varied program offers an introduction to several sides of Schubert’s musical voice.
