Bridging the Classical and Romantic music eras, the prolific Franz Schubert gave the world an astonishing wealth of compositions during his very short 31 years of life. In this program, CMS celebrates Schubert’s magical genius, barely recognized during his lifetime, with two of his most significant chamber music works: his splendid piano trio in B-flat major and his greatest piano duet, the Fantasie in F minor, a tragically beautiful farewell written during the final months of his life.
