I wonder if he knows the Schubert "Frühlingstraum" how I should love to hear it! As for your interesting plan for relieving the passing hours, I should hardly be human if I did not respond to it! Only please never write when you don't feel quite like it and neither will I. The white lilacs were even more beautiful than the roses and the daffodils.
By this means, too, you can judge who are the true disciples of music in this world those who, like Schubert and Chopin, suffered the heaven-born melodies to descend THROUGH them as though they were mere conductors of sound; or those who, feebly imitating other composers, measure out crotchets and quavers by rule and line, and flood the world with inane and perishable, and therefore useless, productions.
A fat young man sitting at Schubert's side seized it and, drawing a few music-bars on the back of a programme, pushed it on to him. "Ach!" said Schubert, with a grateful sigh, "Goot goot!" In another moment he was lost. The talk grew louder. Hurried waiters rushed back and forth behind his chair with foaming mugs and slices of black bread, and gray and brown.
In a word, Schubert improvised with the pen, and he seems to have been an exception to Schopenhauer's rule, that the greatest writers are those whose thoughts come to them before writing, and not while writing.
Lamonte enjoys slipping off discretely on occasion to hear some... jazz..." Putting both palms on the table, she whispered. "The way I sometimes slip off to sing... Schubert." Jurgen laughed and sat back in his chair. "Schubert." He did not feel particularly surprised; she probably sang all of Schubert's lieder beautifully.
That hulking brute imagines but he'll find his mistake if he attempts to cross the line. Beauty, passion, purity what a blend! She's a woman alone the blue rose of women and she is mine." He murmured, to some cadence of a Schubert serenade: "My Deb! My love! My love! My queen!" and suddenly stopped short in his musings. Her foot crunched the gravel behind him.
Schubert was also the first composer who revealed the exquisite beauty and the great emotional power of the freest modulation from key to key.
Their principal sources are Beethoven, Schubert, and Chopin, to whom we must add, in the second half of the century, Liszt. The symphonies of Haydn and Mozart are like toy-houses compared with the massive architecture of Beethoven's. He not only elaborated the forms, but varied the rhythms, broadened the melody, and deepened the expression of orchestral music.
Nor are his works for everyday hearing, but only for high festivals when we can enjoy them at our leisure with our minds prepared. For our daily bread we have other composers as great as he, and more nutritious and wholesome for continued diet Bach, Mozart, Schubert, Schumann, and how many more of the highest rank!
He turned his eyes again to the rising sun, and his heart silently chanted its love and pride and sadness in the phrases of Beethoven, of Schubert and of Brahms, and from time to time, softly, he muttered to himself, this stout young German Jew with the red neck-tie and the strange round hat: "Süsses Kind! Unglückliches Kind! Oh der schöne Tag!"
