Discovering Masterpieces of Classical Music - Schubert

Host: Habakuk Traber
Berliner Philharmoniker
Daniel Barenboim

Franz Schubert's Symphony No. 8 in B minor, commonly known as the Unfinished, was started in 1822 but left with only two movements complete even though Schubert would live for another six years. Since Schubert's death at the age of 31, the Unfinished Symphony has been a bit of a mystery, but research has shed new light on the composer's original intentions, as German author and musicologist Habakuk Traber knows.

Repertoire

Symphony No.8 in B minor "Unfinished": Allegro moderato; Andante con moto
