Goethe's Reaction to Schubert's Dedication (Michael Lorenz)

Musicological Research Blog

Musicologist Michael Lorenz's research, drawing on Otto Erich Deutsch, on why Goethe never replied to Schubert's 1816 and 1825 gifts of his Goethe settings, arguing from Goethe's own remark to Eckermann that he declined generic acknowledgments to any composer rather than judging Schubert unworthy.
