Franz Peter Schubert was an Austrian composer. Although Franz Schubert was already at the age of 31 years died, he left behind a rich and diverse body of work. In his lifetime he didn't have that many admirers. A major reason for this was, that he himself did not seek the public and unlike Mozart and Beethoven only 1827 was persuaded by his friends to give his own concert, which then became a great success. Today, Schubert's rank as an outstanding representative of early Romanticism is undisputed.
