How come so little applause? ? This overture is a masterpiece, and it was beautifully performed. If Rossini had listened to it, he would have liked it very much.
Schubert's cues when composing the Overtures in the Italian Style are from Rossini, specifically Tancredi, which was a very popular opera in those days. Schubert and his friends went to see a performance of it in Vienna 1816. The overture was lauded by Schubert's pals, and Schubert boasted that he could easily write an overture in the same style. He wrote not one, but two: D. 590 and 591. Schubert particularly emulates the sparkling woodwind work that Rossini employed; hear how the flute and clarinet constantly double eachother, a common technique of Rossini's orchestration. Schubert also takes advantage of the sonatina form of Rossini's overtures, not without his signature modulatory finesse (3:30, A major, from C!). 3:55 is definitely inspired from Rossini's rousing crescendi. Many operas of the Neapolitan early Bel Canto school always had a relatively genial-sounding overture, regardless of at-times contradictory dramatic content. Rossini actually recycled his overture to the opera seria Tancredi from his OPERA BUFFA, La Pietra del Paragone. Schubert's overtures of the same style may be placed in any given Italian opera of the 1810s.
Yes, Schubert knew all the Rossini tricks in his two Italian ouvertures. However, could he have written a whole Rossini opera like Il Barbiere, La Cenerentola or William Tell? He wrote about 10-15 operas and singspiele but none achieved the world fame and popularity like Rossini's works. So imitating the Italian maestro was after all not that easy and perhaps a good thing that Schubert didn't carry the joke too far. Both composers were born at about the same time and both stopped composing in their thirties, Schubert because he died, and Rossini due to illness. Let us rejoice over what they actually achieved in their respective fields. And lament all the operas we didn't get from Schubert and all the Lieder that Rossini didn't compose😊
Very nice performance! Not a work you hear very often! Though I concede nothing to anyone in my love of Schubert, I'm not sure that the Viennese master is fully in his lyrical element trying to be Rossini?

Very positive and uplifting music. Bravo Schubert!

bravi!!
What 's Franz.... TOO clever, A LA ROSSINY ! BRAVO FOR energetic orchestra's rendition
Great performance - answers the oft repeated question "why are conductors needed?"
Why?? So your concertmaster won't dance in his seat like this gentleman!
Ah yes. The piece in which Schubert casually outrossinies Rossini.
Yeah, mediocre Schubert, sorry.
It's not the most inspired piece is it? Presentation and audio was great, so I gave it a like.
