Franz Schubert: Music and Belief by Leo Black

A fresh appraisal of Schubert's nature and beliefs, deriving from close study of his works.
Remarkable new study-- Bayan Northcott * BBC MUSIC MAGAZINE *
A thoroughly convincing study of the music, beautifully and unpretentiously written... Excellent study does memorable justice to the composer. * CLASSIC FM *
An important and absorbing addition to the canon of Schubert literature. * GRAMOPHONE *
[This] book is an invaluable addition to Schubert studies, not only as a treasure trove for the academic, but also for the performing musician.... The author is clearly a musicologist of the highest order, but he also proves to be a philosopher of insight and generosity, and it is here that his genius lies.... Leo Black has written a masterpiece and a monument. Robert Tear in * THE OLDIE *
There is much that is interesting and original in this book. * MUSIC & LETTERS *
Arnold Schoenberg (1874-1951), renowned Austrian and American composer, musical theorist, painter, and teacher of composition, pioneered compositional and critical approaches to atonality that were landmarks in twentieth century musical thought.
