Schubert

Schubert

Schubert was born the son of a modest schoolmaster in a suburb of Vienna. He became a singer in the choir of the court chapel. His precarious life struggling to survive from his compositions was enlivened by the group of friends among whom he lived and who supported him and valued his work. He achieved little outside recognition in his own time and died of typhus at the tragically early age of 31. It’s unbearable to think that the maker of such beauties hardly heard his own works performed. The film carefully traces the outlines of his short but productive life and is followed by a brief overview of Schubert's work. AM072HD18 Schubert 2018 37'14
