Franz Schubert's music has long been celebrated for its lyrical
melodies, 'heavenly length' and daring harmonic language. In this
new study of Schubert's complete string quartets, Anne Hyland
challenges the influential but under-explored claim that Schubert
could not successfully incorporate the lyric style into his
sonatas, and offers a novel perspective on lyric form that embraces
historical musicology, philosophy and music theory and analysis.
Her exploration of the quartets reveals Schubert's development of a
lyrically conceived teleology, bringing musical form, expression
and temporality together in the service of fresh intellectual
engagement. Her formal analyses grant special focus to the quartets
of 1810-16, isolating the questions they pose for existing music
theory and employing these as a means of scrutinising the
relationship between the concepts of lyricism, development, closure
and teleology thereby opening up space for these works to challenge
some of the discourses that have historically beset them.
