☝🤓 Mozart actually died when he was 35 years old

Such genius to die so young, tragic.

Native German speaker here: "Schubertiaden" is pronounced: shoo-bare(the British pronunciation)-tea-ah-den

feel u schubert

[@braincraven]

WOW! What a song. Just think of putting that voice and song to a real hurdy gurdy. Sadness level +10 😞

[@Quotenwagnerianer]

The thumbnail is wrong. "Der Leiermann" is not Schubert's final song. That is "Die Taubenpost".

[@Noam_.Menashe]

Interesting.

kinda makes me fear whatll happen to me

[@frederickkuhl276]

Who are the performers? I don’t have anything to compare the performance to, but this seemed lovely.

[@jpj5896]

Der Doppelganger is actually a bit more sad?

[@myouatt5987]

Good analysis, good vid ... I can't say/add much more other than what you've interpreted ... lots of distance, isolation, negativity in the words - some archaisms in the lyrics perhaps (?? - but I'm not an expert in 19th century Austrian/German!! 😏), etc., etc.. Thank you.
