      Right. Schubert could express the whole wide world in a piano piece of 3 minutes: 'Hungarian Melody' (D. 817). The greatest genius in music after J.S. Bach.

    It is unbelievable that a work like this remained isolated in someone's drawer for 40 years. It is unsettling to think that something so simple as a house fire could have removed a work of such other-worldly beauty from existence. It makes me wonder if there have been other works of art as magnificent as Schubert's 8th that were indeed removed from existence.

    Oh, my Lord! That first movement's probably one of the finest compositions by Schubert, much less, anybody else of his genre! It quite simply is so beyond beautiful of the most inexplicable nature that there's nothing left to do but give in and listen to the musical-paradise that it is of the utmost perfection; yes, perfection itself ---- that's neither sad nor happy, neither melodramatic nor neurotic, neither spooky nor depressing ---- but just one that draws ye in ever so graciously that ye don't even realise, ye hath forgotten about everything else and can't seem to let go; all paralysed by its sheer grace!

    My composition teacher once told me that sometimes if you can't come up with anything else to write after you finish writing something you really like, that it is usually a sign that you are supposed to stop at that point. Maybe that is what happened to Schubert. Either way, I love this symphony the way it is.

So he gave up finishing the symphony because he believed having a symphony almost entirely in 3 wouldn't be well received.

    One of my favorite symphonies. I wonder if Schubert wrote this tragic work when he found out he had contracted the then fatal disease of syphilis. ( He was to live about five more years after his diagnosis during which time his musical output would be the most productive in his short life.) The whole mood and character of this novel work was a complete break from the other symphonies he had written up that point. There is such sadness and fear mixed with hope, resentment and memories of happier days. I can't understand why he would hide this work only to be discovered about 20 years later after his death . So sad. RIP Dear Franz.

    • @srothbardt

      It's part of a recent theory why the symphony is "unfinished," but it doesn't matter, since the work is finished as it is. It's perfect in two movements.

    • @gervaisfrykman266
      @gervaisfrykman266 3 роки тому

      I believe this is correct. It opened up for him or forced him into a new realm of feeling, representing a huge, lifetime advance. The scherzo (sketch and one fully scored page) reverts to his previous outlook too much, and I think this is why he abandoned it. The abandonment of the superb piano sonata in C (Relique) is not so easy to explain. It was a titan, and within a whisker of completion. Paul Badura-Skoda completed it, and many other completable piano sonatas, revealing a corpus of work of astonishing range and quality.

      He actually put the symphony aside when he was commissioned to write the "Wanderer Fantasie". The symphony was written for the Graz Music Society, who granted him honorary membership. It was passed to friends Joseph and then Anselm Huttenbrenner (of Graz). Anselm kept it for decades until it was passed to a Viennese conductor Johann von Herbeck who performed it in 1865.

    We did watch a documentary about Schubert half a year later, I told her I recognised the Symphony, she didn't even know she showed it to her students.
    Now we learned about romantic componists and music and we again heard this symphony and I still love it so that's why I came back today.

    End of the first movement, as dramatic as anything ever written, the tension and emotion of Beethoven, intensity and high strings that Dvorak uses, but without any thrashing around. Schubert's gift for melody reminds me of Keats's gift for beautiful language, and even his most dramatic passages are sublimely gorgeous.

    Surprisingly, the 2nd mvt got stuck to my brain pretty easily. Normally when I listen to slow movements like these, I forget them. Man, Schubert really was something else if he's able to get a melody into my brain in just one listen.

    When I was a freshman in high school, my teacher took this from his files collection and made us practice this song. We never played it in concert, but literally every year until my graduation he took it out randomly and had us practice sections of the song. I've always loved it since I first heard what it should have sounded like.

    Just wanted to say how much I love this recording and the piece in general. It's a little odd that something which is by definition incomplete can seem so perfectly whole. To me, the two movements speak of a turbulent personality finally coming to some form of resolution. I sometimes forget how revolutionary this symphony was for its day and I'd assume that it hailed from the latter part of the 19th century if I didn't know it was composed by Schubert.

    I LOVE the development section of that first movement!! It's one of my all time favorites!! That first movement is very interesting in terms of form though. It's in sonata form, but the modulation in the exposition is to the submediant, which still works, but the development section doesn't keep the same tonic. The recap section modulates to the relative major instead of the parallel major for the second theme. Very interesting and unusual. Still one of my favorite works!! Thanks for the effort and work that went into this video!! I love following the score, because I'm working on getting a music composition degree myself!

Soy violín 2, pero de todos modos se tiene que tener bastante disciplina, constancia y de hecho amor a la música para interpretarla, cualquier persona que solo toca por tocar ve las partituras de reojo y piensa 'No, esto es demasiado complicado para mi, tengo flojera, no ni que fuera tan emocionante.' Amo el hecho de que me hayan dado la oportunidad de tocar esto y no me rendiré hasta que me salga lo mejor posible. Excelente pieza, muy hermosa y con sentimiento. A veces pienso ¿Que habrá pasado por la cabeza de los compositores para hacer semejante creación? Son personas realmente admirables, lástima que esta sea la Sinfonía Inconclusa.

    I heard Schubert's Unfinished for the first time in early 1970's on Australian Broadcast- ing Corporation's Asia Pacific broadcast and ever since I have been mesmerised by the subtle beauty of the piece. Schubert like Beethoven was a student of Haydn and in this piece the slow, soft and moving refrain has the beauty of Haydn and in the other vigorous sections shows the modern and strong Beethovenesque style. In a way, this piece represents the blending and inter-twining of two styles, one of the Romantic period with its emphasis on beauty and the other of the Modern period with emphasis on subjective expression of the vagaries and highs and lows of human emotions. This piece ends bringing a contentment of a great piece well-concluded without leaving any craving that a great "unfinished" piece should cause. A Schubertian all-time gem !

    I used to listen to this beautiful symphony while meditating on the fifteen mysteries of the most holy rosary of the blessed virgin Mary. The arrangement seems to fit in an exact order of those meditations from beginning to end. There is a thread of mutual love woven throughout the piece akin to the mutual love expressed in the mysteries.
    I feel the unfinished ending is appropriate for the mutual love itself is unfinished, without an end.
