Episode 3
Donald Macleod introduces examples of Schubert's songs, part-songs and chamber music typical of the works performed at the musical soir茅es of friends and admirers all over Vienna.
In Schubert's Vienna, a great deal of music-making took place in the homes of the middle-classes and aristocracy. Schubert's songs in particular were a popular fixture at many a musical soir茅e, and as his popularity grew, concerts devoted entirely to his music were organised by friends and admirers. Donald Macleod introduces a selection of Schubert's songs, part-songs and chamber music, typical of the works performed at such gatherings and often with Schubert himself at the piano.
