Symphony no. 9, D. 944 / Fragments D. 615

Album by Franz Schubert & Academy of St Martin in the Fields & Sir Neville Marriner

Symphony No. 9 in C major, D.944, together with Fragments D.615, is a symphonic work by Austrian composer Franz Schubert, composed between 1825 and 1828. The music employs expansive orchestration, long-breathed melodies and adventurous harmonic progressions that bridge Classical forms and emerging Romantic expression, while the fragments are incomplete sketches that illuminate Schubert's late-period compositional approach.
