Franz Schubert composed this sonata in October 1826, the year in which he completed his Great C-major Symphony and his dark and brooding G major string quartet. He was already ill, and much of his music from the last two years of his life is melancholy and full of thoughts of death. This sonata, however, is relatively tranquil in mood throughout, although with some darker passages. Schubert’s publisher Tobias Haslinger gave the first movement, which is in sonata form, the title ‘Fantasie’, and the nickname has stuck to the whole sonata. Haslinger seems to have wished to present the four

Mark Padmore sings Ludwig van Beethoven & Franz Schubert
[…] a longtime duo partner of flutist Emily Beynon.Source: loc.gov Franz Schubert: Schwanengesang (Swan Song), song cycle for voice and piano, D.957Before his death in 1828, Franz Schubert had completed portions of two projected song cycles – one on poems by Ludwig Rellstab, and the other on poems of Heinrich Heine. These cycle fragments, representing a total of thirteen songs, were collected after the composer's death by his brother, Ferdinand Schubert, and one of his publishers, Tobias Haslinger, who then added "Die Taubenpost" and published all fourteen as Schwanengesang (Swan Song) in 1829.It is impossible to know how much thought these men gave to their hodgepodge; it is likely that their motives were entirely commercial (the Heine songs, in particular, showed promise as moneymakers). So one should not examine Schwanengesang in the same light as Schubert's two earlier cycles, Die Schöne Müllerin and Winterreise, both of which were conceived of as wholes […]

Schubert Schwanengesng, D957 (1828) with Florian Boesch and Malcolm Martineau at the Wigmore Hall, London. Schwanengesang isn't Schubert's Swan Song any more than it is a cycle like Die schöne Müllerin or Winterreise. The title was given by his publishers Haslingers, after his death, combining settings of two very differet poets, Ludwig Rellstab and Heinrich Heine. Wigmore Hall audiences have heard lots of good Schwanengesangs, including Boesch and Martineau performances in the past, but this was something special. Since Schwanengesang is not a song cycle, there';s no reason why song order can't be altered. Boesch and Msrtineau began with Liebesbotschaft, following it with Frühlingssensucht and Ständchen, forming a bouquet, where the songs complemented each other. This meant that Boesch could focuss on emotional finesse. We're so used to good baritone performances that it's easy to underestimate the delicacy in these songs, but Boesch, despite the firmness in his timbre, achieves an […]
