Wollenberg Susan. Schubert’s Fingerprints: Studies in the Instrumental Works

Ashgate, 2011. — 338 p.Book on musical analysis of F. Schubert`s compositions. For musicians and teachers.As Robert Schumann put it, 'Only few works are as clearly stamped with their author's imprint as his'. This book explores Schubert's stylistic traits in a series of chapters each discussing an individual 'fingerprint' with case-studies drawn principally from the piano and chamber music. Schubert emerges as someone exerting intellectual control over his musical material and imbuing it with poetic resonance.
