[Schubert, Franz. (1797–1828)] Moore, Gerald. (1899–1987). Erlkönig - Autograph Musical Quotation. Very uncommon AMQS from the beloved English pianist and accompanist, who has inscribed and penned the instantly recognizable motive from Schubert's most famous song on a 3 x 5 inch index card. Moore is rare in signed quotes.
Schubert composed his Lied, "Der Erlkönig", for solo voice and piano in 1815, setting text from the Goethe poem. Schubert revised the song three times before publishing his fourth version in 1821 as his Opus 1; it was cataloged by Otto Erich Deutsch as D. 328 in his 1951 catalog of Schubert's works. The song was first performed in concert on December 1, 1820, at a private gathering in Vienna, and received its public premiere on March 7, 1821, at Vienna's Theater am Kärntnertor.
"Perhaps Schubert's most famous 'Lied', receiving acclaim both during and after his lifetime....Schubert's setting captures both the psychological nuances and pictorial lyricism of Goethe's poem." (Lorraine Byrne, "Schubert's Goethe Settings," p. 228)
