Neglected Schubert

 
Franz Schubert

Franz Schubert's songs, symphonies, and chamber works are well represented in the main stream classical repertory. Yet his masses and his operas are largely ignored, even thought they contain lovely music, worthy of revival.

On this week’s Classics of the Phonograph, Saturday at 11 am on WILL-FM 90.9, we will sample the music of these rarely performed compositions.
