When Schubert died. his Unfinished ' Symphony, which had never been performed during his lifetime, lay hidden somewhere in the town of Gratz, of whose Musical Society Schubert was a member. Ultimately, after years of fruitless search, the manuscript of the symphony was found.
Why it remained unfinished, or whether, indeed, the composer's ultimate intention was ever to finish it at all. can never be known. It is known, however, that it was the work of a new Schubert, a genius for the first time probing the remoter depths of a mature imagination.
