“Schubert Marathon” – Part 3: an introduction by Susanne Stähr “Schubert Marathon” – Part 3
Schubert’s chamber music is a world of its own. In our Schubert Marathon, Berliner Philharmoniker ensembles explore the musical landscapes of the composer’s soul. Perhaps his most radical instrumental work is the String Quartet No. 15. Harmonically expansive and marked by extreme contrasts, it vacillates between hope and despair. The programme concludes with Schubert’s beautiful and highly dramatic string quintet, a chamber music swan song.
