January 31, 1797 The birthday of the famous Austrian musician Schubert
228 years ago today, January 31, 1797 (January 4, 1797), the famous Austrian musician Schubert was born. Franz Seraphicus Peter Schubert (1797.1.31-1828.11.19), whose Serenade was written by Austrian composer Schubert, is appreciated all over the world for its deep feeling and elegance. Speaking of its creative process, it is unexpected. One afternoon in July 1826, Schubert and several friends went for a walk in the suburbs of Vienna. Tired of walking, he went to a roadside hotel to rest. A familiar friend was drinking in the shop while reciting a lyric poem called "Serenade":"My song passes through the night and floats gently to you..." Schubert picked up his pen while listening. A friend who was traveling with him knew that his inspiration had come and there was no staff, so he quickly drew a staff on the back of the menu. Schubert picked up the menu and wrote. Soon, this world-famous "Serenade" was born on the back of a menu in this noisy small hotel. Schubert was born on January 31, 1797. His father was the principal of a primary school in the suburbs of Vienna. He had 19 children, of which Schubert was the youngest. He has loved music since he was a child. When he was 11, he entered the seminary choir, which was free to read. After five years, he later called it "life in prison." He started working as a teacher in his father's elementary school at the age of 16. He was teaching and composing music. When he was 18 years old, one afternoon, he picked up Goethe's narrative poem "The Devil King" and read it. Suddenly, his mood was excited. An hour later, the world-famous song "The Devil King" was born. This famous song immediately caused a sensation in Vienna and set him on the road of music creation. Schubert only lived to the age of 33. He wrote 634 art songs in his life, hence the name of "Shadow Songs". In addition, he also wrote 8 symphonies, some ensemble, sonatas, impromptu and other music works. He admired Beethoven very much. In 1822, Schubert went to see Beethoven with his newly published works, and Beethoven went out. Later, Beethoven discovered this piece while he was ill and said,"This piece is full of magical sparks." However, when Schubert went to visit Beethoven again, Beethoven was already critically ill and unable to speak. When Schubert died, he asked relatives and friends to bury him next to Beethoven, and their bronze statues still stand side by side in Vienna Square. Schubert's Tomb
