Exploring Music with Bill McGlaughlin
Schubertiade, Part II
The title refers to home music-making among Franz Schubert’s wide circle of friends, who sang his songs and played his piano pieces and chamber music during house parties. These were evenings among semi-Bohemians, rich with music and conversations. This week we explore the chamber-music compositions of Schubert. Some of these works are very familiar, like the "Trout Quintet," and other works that are less known but equally as wonderful.
