  • Schubert: the Nonsense Society Revisited
    © 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

Their making usually reflects a determination on the part of the director or star to see the artist as an alter-ego. Many of them were adaptations of successful literary works, which tempted financial backers by having a ready-made audience based on a pre-established reputation. The sub-genre’s development is explored via the grouping of films with associated themes and the use of case studies.

  • Balman 1 Forrest Balman Dr. Ellison MUS 551 March 28Th, 2019 Franz
    Balman 1 Forrest Balman Dr. Ellison MUS 551 March 28th, 2019 Franz Schubert Arguably the composer who produced the largest quantity of work in proportion to his lifespan, Franz Schubert served an integral role in the history of Western music. According to Christopher H. Gibbs, author of The Cambridge Companion to Schubert, Schubert composed ​ ​ more than 1,500 works over the course of his short lifespan. Schubert’s principal focus was the composition of lieder, or German art songs, which comprised more than one third of his total catalog (Gibbs 21). Schubert’s songwriting epitomizes his importance as a transitional composer, whose compositional idioms projected what would become the musical norm well into the late 19th century. Despite never achieving the international acclaim of some of the other Austrian-born composers, such as Mozart and Haydn, Schubert was an idolic cultural figure in his community. According to Gibbs in an article titled The Life of Schubert, “During the early ​ ​ ​ 1820s, Schubert was part of a close-knit circle of artists and students who had social gatherings together that became known as Schubertiads” (Gibbs 61). Although his music wouldn’t become a universally accepted part of the Western repertoire until after his death, Schubert’s musical contributions comment on his innovation and untamed creativity. Franz Peter Schubert was born in Vienna on January 31, 1797. His father, Franz Theodor Florian Schubert, was a Viennese schoolmaster, and his mother, Maria Elizabeth Katharina Vietz was a housemaid. Schubert demonstrated an innate talent for music early in his life. The first Balman 2 music instruction Schubert received were informal keyboard lessons from his elder brother, Ignaz Schubert.
