We are told that in early the eighteen-year-old composer wrote to his friend Anton Hokapfel, who was three years his senior, confiding his affedion for Therese Grob,the daughter of a widow who ran a silk factory near the Liechtenthal church. Hokapfel described Therese as 'not by any means a beauty, but well shaped, fairly buxom, with a fresh, childlike little round face and a fine soprano voioe extending to D in alt'.
Hokapfel's reply to Schubert's letter is also lost, but he remembered responding in a tone of avuncular wisdom which attempted to dissuade the young composer from any unwise and premature commitment. She had sung the soprano solos in a perfommance of Schubert's first Mass in F D in , and the composer's attachment to her is said to have lasted until when she manried a baker. So much for lost letters. What of the surviving documentary evidence from ?

French grammar was never Schubert's strong point his most famous mistake in this area was 'Momens Musicals' instead of 'Moments Musicaux' and it was not among his school subjeds nevertheless in the Vienna of the time it was customary to print title pages in rather high-flown French, and faute de mieux, a young composer denied a publisher will manufacture his own hand-written fantasies. The next document is the entry in the family register of the birth, in April of the composer's half-sister Josefa Schubert's mother had died in and his father hal remaried.
Thirteen years later this little girl was to show touching devotion as Schubert's nurse in his final illness. There are brief hand-written additions to three dramabc works from this year.

By November Schubert is no longer in such a deferential mood for we see that Salieri has temporarily lost the 'von' which confenred on him a noble status purely honorary on the composer's manuscripts: Nevertheless pace Peter Shaffer's depiction of a tortured monster Salieri was beloved of his pupils and Schubert who had received twice-weekly lessons from Salieri in his schooldays, remained under his guidance throughout this crucial year of , and only left him, at the earliest, in In August Schubert's father made an unsuccessful attempt to change his employment.
There was a vacant post for a teacher at the elementary school of the so-called Scottish monastery. Franz Theodor Schubert's petition for this job includes mention of his four sons, the youngest of whom, Karl, was studying drawing. A name-dropping reference to the 'kind guidance of Court Musical Director Herr von Salieri' is also made in connection with his promising musical son's progress.
Finally, there is a brief appreciative reference to the Twelve Ecossaises D from the mother of Schubert's close friend Josef von Spaun. Leaving aside the dates and evidence of work on the musical manuscripts themselves, this is the sum total of the actual Schubertian documentary evidence known to us for the year. In terms of history and politics, was, of course, an epic year.
Napoleon escaped from Elba and met his final defeat at Waterloo.
In Schubert's home town the Congress of Vienna, which had convened in , was still busy carving up Europe. Prussia gained parts of Saxony and the Rhineland. All in all, the powers and rights of hereditary rulers were reinforced in the name of legitimacy; it was the triumph of the conservative old guard.
The outcome was over thirty years of despotic rule and the merciless suppression of iiberal and nationalist sentiments, particularly in Austria and Italy. In the German Confederation came into being and the persecution of students and other potentially dangerous liberals began in the German-speaking world. There were student riots in Vienna in , and Schubert himself was to fall foul of the authorities five years later because of their mistrust of any student gathering, no matter how innocuous.
The composer was to become much more politically aware as he got older, but in all probability in the import of politics on his own life was lost on him; a charivari of political chicanery orchestrated by the princes temporal was happening in close proximity to his self-appointed tasks, but these immortal musical devotions constituted a revolution of their own and inaugurated a new age, in song at least.
In he was simply too busy to give politics much thought at all. We do not even know what the young composer, still living at home, thought about the atmosphere in Vienna at the time. Customer reviews There are no customer reviews yet. Share your thoughts with other customers.
