SCHUBERT Franz (1797 - 1828) - Lot 208
SCHUBERT Franz (1797 - 1828) autograph musical manuscript, Magnifi cat. Oboe Imo, [1815]; 3 1/2 pages small in-fol. of one bifeuillet (29.3 x 22.8 cm). Complete part of the first oboe in the Magnifi cat D.486. It was in September 1815 (the score is dated September 25) that the eighteen-year-old Schubert composed this Magnifi cat "of sumptuous workmanship for soloists, choir and orchestra (strings with violas, oboes, bassoons, trumpets and timpani). Three parts: two majestic and resounding sections in C framing a central panel, a kind of Andante in F entrusted to the soloists; the hymnal, decorative character and the tight writing of the ensemble make it a great work and assure it an honorable place among traditional baroque church music" (Alfred Einstein). This Magnifi cat is situated between the 1st version of the Salve Regina in F (op.47, D223) and the 3rd Mass in B flat major (op. posth. 141, D324). It was probably composed for the parish church of Lichtenthal, in the suburbs of Vienna. The manuscript of this first oboe part is very carefully written in brown ink on 12-line paper. The first movement, Allegro maestoso, occupies the entire first page. On the second page, the Andante reserves for the oboe interventions in "Solo", dialoguing with the soprano. This is followed by the Allegro vivace, with an entirely voiceless line. After the last bar, Schubert wrote the word "Fine". BIBLIOGRAPHY Magnifi cat D 486, ed. Marja von Bargen & Salome Reiser (Stuttgart, Carus-Verlag, 1996). DISCOGRAPHY Nikolaus Harnoncourt (Teldec, 2000).
