Not now, hes absolutely adored!

[@mariejosf]

WHAT? Underappreciated...Are you kidding? Certainly not, a lot of people love this composer; maybe you just do not listen to the right channel? Do you know how many records of his works are bought each year? And should you attend some concerts, you would realize how often he is played.

[@shangshi4609]

I’ve been obsessed with Schubert for quite awhile but never really know his history. Your video almost bring tears to my eyes because I suddenly feel the connection with Schubert even more! ❤thanks!

[@KeepingOnTheWatch]

To sum it up: Schubert was vertically challenged, socially challenged, aesthetically challenged, romantically challenged and self-promotionally challenged. So, I'm practically there. Just need a few more years of piano lessons and I'm good.

[@PianotvNet]

This is a perfect summary!

[@ineffablemars]

He wasn’t bad looking though.

[@colorsofsound4782]

Hey, I just wanted to say thank you for all the work you have been doing. Your videos span a wide range of topics related to the wonderful world of the piano and are easy to understand for someone like me who started learning music theory and piano 2 months ago. It's educational, your style is fresh and contemporary and it has me looking forward to the next one each time. Thanks.

[@reev9759]

Based on other biographies on Schubert that I've seen and read, he was very social and quite the partier and drinker, akin to Mozart. It is thanks to his friends and social circles that his music was played at all in his lifetime, therefore he comes off to me more as an extrovert. He is in no way an introvert along the same lines as, say, Chopin.

[@Aureelia63N3]

[@mckernan603]

About ten days before his death Schubert dined at my house in the company of several other friends. He was very cheerful, indeed, exceptionally jovial, into which mood he had been set by the large quantities of wine - of which he was no despiser - which he had drunk during the evening. He had eaten, so I believe, the above-mentioned fish, which had nauseated him and given him the feeling that he had been poisoned at his brother's house several evenings before that. The poison seemed to have had no lasting effect, however, since on that evening at my house he was completely well and, as already said, exceptionally jovial.

[@loganfruchtman953]

Schubert also was a torchaberrer at Beethoven’s funeral and became friendly with him at the end of their lives

[@antspiano1378]

[@jamesmitchell6925]

This is great! You should do a video on Gabriel Fauré. Nocturne 13 in B minor, The Sicilienne, Pavane, and Après un Rêve are some of my favorite pieces of music ever! Plus he had a really great mustache.

[@brettsinger9565]

[@thepianoplayer416]

A generation ago, composers rely on being employed by a patron of music either a nobleman or a member of a royal family with the except of Mozart. After the French revolution, there were still composers employed by wealthy patrons but getting rare. Composers like Beethoven began to market themselves like Pop musicians do today by performing in public. Once listened to a radio program featuring some Classical pieces. The commentator asked what if a composer had lived another 100 years? What kind of music would he write? Composers who lived that long would have to reinvent themselves by creating music in the style of the day to stay relevant. For instance if J.S. Bach lived another decade, his music would be more like the ones by Mozart & Hayden. The Baroque style was fading. Bach's middle son CPE was considered a composer in transition. His youngest son abandoned the Baroque style completely and wrote pieces more like the ones by Hayden. Vivaldi was in a similar situation. He was famous for a while but near the time of his death, the Baroque style of music was becoming less popular. If Schubert was to live even 1 more year, he would have been able to finish his last symphony #8 with 4 movements instead of just 2 which earned the nickname "Unfinished".

[@sebribo1873]

Nicely done! Here my critics: wiener klassik, not just klassik - you should be more precise here. 'everything Liszt touched, turned to gold' - I doubt it. Schubert & Liszt are very interesting opposite characters. Despite Liszt having more apparent success during his lifetime, Schuberts repertoire, in particular the symphonies, piano sonatas, and chamber music is much more present today than anything of Liszt with the exceptions of some bravura pieces; so I feel most of schuberts opus may survive longer.
