About the book
"Schubert and the Symphony is the first full-length study of Schubert's career as a symphonist: astonishingly, his Symphonies have never received the detailed study in print which their hold on modern affections, in both concert programmes and recording catalogues, suggest they deserve. Professor Brian Newbould, perhaps the best-known of contemporary Schubert scholars, examines each Symphony for its individuality and shows its relationship to Schubert's symphonic oeuvre. He gives particular attention to the sketched works that have emerged more recently (not least the Tenth Symphony), and to the two familiar masterpieces of Schubert's maturity, the 'Unfinished' and the 'Great C major'. He also casts new light on the role of Haydn and Mozart as models for the youthful Schubert."--Jacket.
