Did you know?
Schubert asked to be buried in a grave alongside Beethoven's. His wishes were followed and was buried in the little Währinger cemetery, less than a year after Beethoven's own death.
Franz Peter Schubert was an Austrian composer of the late Classical and early Romantic eras. Even though he only lived to the age of 31, Schubert left behind a vast work, including more than 600 secular vocal pieces, seven complete symphonies, sacred music, operas, incidental music and a large body of piano and chamber music.
