    Franz Peter Schubert (1797-1828) was an Austrian composer. Although he died at the age of 31, he left a rich and diverse work. He composed some 600 songs, secular and spiritual chorus, seven complete and five unfinished symphonies, overtures, stage works, piano music and chamber music.

    During his lifetime the number of his admirers was still limited. Mendelssohn, Schumann, Liszt, Brahms and other composers of the Romantic period discovered and praised the work of their predecessors. Today Schubert's rank as an outstanding representative of early Romanticism is undisputed.

    Schubert had no real income, for he had given up his teaching position, and public appearances were of no use, and the publishers were not yet interested in his music. His friends had to take care of his livelihood.
    Schubert's state of health gave rise to speculation. As he grew older, he became more corpulent and inclined to alcoholic excesses. In January, 1823, he was hospitalized in the Vienna General Hospital for syphilitic ulcers.

    An unsecured anecdote, the host even took a song from time to time, which Schubert often composed at the same time at the restaurant when he could not pay the bill in cash. On March 26, 1828, he gave the only public concert of his career. After two weeks of continuous fever, Franz Schubert died on November 19, 1828, at three o'clock in the afternoon. In 1888 his bones were transferred to a grave of honor at the Central Cemetery in Vienna.
