For example, your life insurance can very easily be arranged to provide life-long support for your widow plus a substantial inheritance for your children. In Shawmut's Personal Trust Department we would be glad to discuss your complete insurance program . with you, your life insurance counsellor and your attorney, or simply write for a copy of our brochure "A Modern Life Insurance Program."

I should, I think, alter the word irreligious here and there to undenominational; for though the Missa Solemnis is more obstreperously fugacious (except for the Dona Nobis) than religious, Beethoven, like Tom Paine, Shelley, and the Mozart of the Magic Flute, was a great Catholic in the universal sense.

    © Copyright, Princeton University Press. No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. Schubert: The Nonsense Society Revisited RITA STEBLIN Twenty years have now passed since I discovered materials belonging to the Unsinnsgesellschaft (Nonsense Society).1 This informal club, active in Vienna from April 1817 to December 1818, consisted mainly of young painters and poets with Schubert as one of its central members. In this essay I will review this discovery, my ensuing interpretations, and provide some new observations. In January 1994, at the start of a research project on Schubert ico- nography, I studied some illustrated documents at the Historisches Museum der Stadt Wien (now the Wienmuseum am Karlsplatz), titled “Unsinniaden.”2 The documents comprise forty-four watercolor pictures and thirty-seven pages of text recording two festive events celebrated by the Nonsense Society: the New Year’s Eve party at the end of 1817 and the group’s first birthday party on 18 April 1818.3 The pictures depict various club members, identified by their code names and dressed in fan- ciful costumes, as well as four group scenes for the first event, including Vivat es lebe Blasius Leks (Long live Blasius Leks; Figure 1), and two group scenes for the second event, including Feuergeister-Scene (Fire Spirit Scene; Figure 6 below).4 Because of the use of code names—and the misidentifi- cations written on the pictures by some previous owner of the

  • Schubert's Late Style and Current Musical Scholarship
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-11129-5 — Schubert's Late Music Edited by Lorraine Byrne Bodley , Julian Horton Excerpt More Information Introduction: Schubert’s late style and current musical scholarship lorraine byrne bodley The theme of lateness When discussing Schubert’s ‘late’ works it is worth remembering that wearereferringtoacomposerinhislatetwenties.Whythen,dowe ascribe the classification ‘late’? And in what sense do we mean ‘late’? Istherenot,inallSchubert’s‘latemusic’,simplyanexperiencedcomposer’s calm and confident grasp of the tools of his trade? Or did Schubert’s knowledge that he was dying propel an early flowering of a ‘late’ style? If so, then how can we define this style as distinct from maturity? While Schubert scholars generally agree that the composer’s style changed, there is a distinct division in how we approach such questions, the contentious issuebeingwhetheritisevenviabletospeakoflatestyleinacomposerwho died so young. Behind this debate lies the biblical belief in the timeliness of human life, where ‘lateness’ is perceived as the final phase. But is ‘lateness’ always an indication of lateness in life, or can it emerge through a recognition that the end is near? In attempting to answer this question it is important to problema- tize the ways in which biology and psychology are often co-opted to explain the imprint composers left on their art. Goethe is often recognized as the progenitor of Alterstil (old-age style) as a positive phenomenon that involved a gradual withdrawal from appearances and a consequent approach to the infinite and mystical.1 From him we derive the attributes of non-finito, subjectivity and the blending of formal with expressive ele- ments that are still widely accepted as markers of late style, as is the perception that old age can lead to transcendence.

  • Franz Schubert Written and Narrated by Jeremy Siepmann with Tom George As Schubert
    LIFE AND WORKS Franz Schubert Written and narrated by Jeremy Siepmann with Tom George as Schubert 8.558135–38 Life and Works: Franz Schubert Preface If music is ‘about’ anything, it’s about life. No other medium can so quickly or more comprehensively lay bare the very soul of those who make or compose it. Biographies confined to the limitations of text are therefore at a serious disadvantage when it comes to the lives of composers. Only by combining verbal language with the music itself can one hope to achieve a fully rounded portrait. In the present series, the words of composers and their contemporaries are brought to life by distinguished actors in a narrative liberally spiced with musical illustrations. Unlike the standard audio portrait, the music is not used here simply for purposes of illustration within a basically narrative context. Thus we often hear very substantial chunks, and in several cases whole movements, which may be felt by some to ‘interrupt’ the story; but as its title implies the series is not just about the lives of the great composers, it is also an exploration of their works. Dismemberment of these for ‘theatrical’ effect would thus be almost sacrilegious! Likewise, the booklet is more than a complementary appendage and may be read independently, with no loss of interest or connection.
