Happy Birthday Franz Schubert

Updated: Apr 2



Happy Birthday Mr Schubert !


Franz Schubert, the composer considered as the forerunner of Romanticism, was born on January 31st, 1797.


To commemorate his birthday, I encourage you to listen to some of his amazing works for piano, such as those played by darling Maria João Pires who has a very special connection to Schubert's music:



"Composers connect us to our truths, to our origin, thus giving us hope. Schubert gives this hope through peaceful acceptation."


~ Maria João Pires


Maria's connection to Schubert's music is legendary. She deeply relates to his often troubled soul, and masterly conveys the simplicity and purity of its expression through his ever 'singing' music. From joy to sorrow and back, it always leads to that peaceful acceptance she has mentioned ...............


I hope you will enjoy listening to Schubert's piano works on his birthday and any other day, from the list I compiled on Spotify - 5 hours and 15 minutes of pure heaven to enjoy.
