This is a great collection of colleagues.

Today, Schubert's sonata is a vagabond piece that's been adopted by everyone.

There needs to be a concert like this. We have an extraordinary trombone section (in the Utah Symphony), and NOVA needs to feature sections, as well as individual players.

The language of the pieces from this year is totally different than before. His earlier works stand in the shadow of Mozart and Beethoven, but with works like the 'Death and the Maiden' quartet, Schubert frees himself from Beethoven's influence and writes pieces that are original.

I decided to focus on 1824 because that's a very special year for (Schubert). It's a turning point in his output.

If we stop exploring space, we're going to lose the same part of us that found vaccines and penicillin, the part that searches for cures to cancer and AIDS.
