That's because everybody knows it! It's like saving the text of your sermon for the final declamation . . .

Schubert: "Auflösung"One of the great cries of madness. When Randall Scarlatta did a Schubert set in 2002 with the Seattle Chamber Music Society, he wasn't sure that this was a good song with which to end the set. I told him it was perfect because it so clearly points the way to Wagner. Had Schubert lived long enough to hear "Tristan", I don't think he would have been all that shocked.
