An die laute
Music: Franz Schubert (1797-1828)
Words: Friedrich Rochlitz (1769-1842)

An die laute is an adorable tuneful song. Here we see a suitor serenading his beloved mistress. He softly plucks his lute from the street up to her window, where a “solitary light still gleams.” There is a hint of secrecy and scandal in the lyric as we see the word mistress, and witness the hope of the singer that only his beloved will hear, “but the neighbors, not the neighbors!” Schubert again expertly creates a piano accompaniment that “word paints,” imitating a lightly played lute in his simple yet perfectly executed composition.

Franz Peter Schubert (Austrian) was an extremely prolific composer given he only lived to be 31 years of age. He wrote over 600 lieder, ten symphonies (including the “Unfinished”), liturgical music, operas, incidental music, and a large body of chamber music and solo piano music. Schubert was one of the great early Romantic era composers, and the cornerstone of German lieder.
