Mozart was introduced to many forms of musical composition, giving him

Schubert

Schubert was originally trained as a schoolteacher at his family’s
request. After joining what today is known as the Vienna Boys Choir, his
talents surfaced in such a way that Antonio Salleri offered to train him
personally. With pressure from his family, Schubert became an educator
at his father’s school, until he broke away to become an independent
tutor. During this time, Schubert wrote some of his best known music,
including the three-act opera “Alfonso und Estrella.” Schubert’s
greatness was cut short due to a disease that took his life at 31. In
spite of this, he produced more masterpieces in his lifetime than almost
any composer in history.

controversial personal life, his work continued to show greatness, as
