Composer
Joseph Schubert (1797-1828)
Joseph Schubert (December 20, 1754, Varnsdorf – July 28, 1837, Dresden) was a German composer, violinist, and violist.
Joseph Schubert was born in Varnsdorf, Bohemia (now Czech Republic) to a musical family. He received his early musical education from his father, who was a kantor, and then in Prague. In 1778, Schubert moved to Berlin to study the violin with Paul Kohn, director of the royal orchestra there.
In 1779, Schubert obtained a position as violinist in the court of Heinrich Friedrich, the Margrave of Brandenburg-Schwedt. In 1788, Schubert accepted a post as violist in the court orchestra of Dresden, where he remained until his death in 1837.
Schubert gained recognition as a versatile composer, cited in the 1812 edition of Ernst Ludwig Gerber's lexicon of composers. His opus includes 15 masses, 4 operas, 17 sonatas, and 49 concertos for solo instruments. The Saxon State Library in Dresden holds the manuscripts of three viola concertos attributed to Joseph Schubert.
