A wonderful lecture

[@epileptiquitopark7971]

Sadly to say... In those days Classical music would be a relay race at its peak without Schubert short life, tons of very beautiful mind-blowing compositions OMG!!

I always says that Schubert is a disciple of Beethoven even he wasn't so in real life

[@militaryandemergencyservic3286]

I have just read John M Gingerichs 'Schubert's Beethoven Project'. I would whole-heartedly recommend it.

That was Great.
Mr. Parloff talked about an interlude that Schubert wrote for Beethoven's funeral with a remarkable French horn in E major. Could some know the name of this piece?

I have ringing in my ears which is easy covered up. Beethoven had a roaring sound which would have been hard to deal with I would think he did not get a lot of sleep and there for grumpy and irritable.

I too have ringing in my ears, since about age 15, resulting from an unfortunate incident. Though it bugged me at first, I somehow gained the ability to tune it out. I can go for long stretches of time without noticing it, until something brings it to my attention (as has happened now). I began getting sporadic odd lower-pitched sounds, something like a spinning clothes-dryer heard at distance, during the period I suffered from TMJ syndrome in the mid 2010s. That was harder to deal with. Thankfully, it vanished when the syndrome did.

What Schubert said about Beethoven and Mozart is right.

Бетховен не был гением. Шуберт неоспоримо - гений.
