Abstract |
This book provides the musician with an invaluable guide to the innovative keyboard music of one of the most influential composers of the romantic era, Franz Schubert (1797-1828). Complete with thematics, this survey reviews all of his published piano music in order by categories. Compositions are identified by Deutsch numbers and opus numbers when available. Each piece is graded according to level of difficulty, and a thorough description is provided. Pertinent historical background and acute critical observations make this book an indispensable tool for the student, teacher, and performing artist. |
