Schubert In the summer of 1819, Schubert set olf on a carefree holiday with his friend Vog). The trip began and ended at Steyr, a charming little town near Linz, on the Danube (where, in 1892, Richard Tauber first saw the light). It was for a group of Schubert's friends there that this Quintet was composed. Schubert performed the unique feat of composing the parts without making any score, and played the pianoforte part at the first performance without having written any of it at all. One of the movements is built up on his song ‘* The Trout," from which the Quintet gets its name. 8.24 James Leighton (baritone), "Four Serious Songs " (Brahms) 8.42 Recordings: The Boyd Neel String Orchestra, "Fantasia on a Theme by Tallis" ..
