Franz Schubert’s "Tragic" Symphony marks a bold turning point, where the 19-year-old composer first channels the dramatic intensity of Beethoven into his own lyrical and expansive voice.

It is a journey of high-stakes emotion, leading the listener from the depths of C minor into a finale of radiant, triumphant light.
