Sylvain Cambreling conducts Schubert — With Jonas Kaufmann, Juliane Banse, Hermine May, Deon van der Walt, and Hermann Prey

Hear a young Jonas Kaufmann in one of Schubert’s greatest works!

When we hear the emotional depth, formal mastery, and uncanny knack for melody that characterize Schubert’s symphonic and choral works, it is easy to imagine a mature composer. But like Mozart who died at 35, Schubert condensed a remarkably prolific output into his brief 31 years—almost as if he knew his time was tragically limited.
