Schubert was a sick man by the year of his death, yet in that last year, 1828, he still managed to complete an incredible number of masterpieces. He died at the tragically early age of 31, leaving sketches for a tenth symphony.

Jane Glover discusses the work involved in realising these sketches with Brian Newbould, professor of music at the University of Hull, and it is performed by the Academy of St Martin-in-the-Fields, led by Christopher Warren-Green and conducted by Neville Marriner.

Recorded in St David's Hall, Cardiff. Show less
