Abstract
Description
An audition at age eleven changed the trajectory of Franz Schubert's life. While following in the footsteps of Schubert and his family as they walked from their home to the Old University Square in Vienna, Jeffrey Johnson has developed insights into Schubert's personality with this meditation on a critical moemnt in the life of a composer. The variations he explores are a bridge from an ordinary experience into a life that was densely extraordinary.
