Schubert, Franz. (1797–1828). Lieder nach Gedichten von Goethe, op. 5 - SIGNED. Wien: Cappi und Diabelli. [1821]. First edition. "Rastlose Liebe, Nähe des Geliebten, Der Fischer, Erster Verlust, und Der König in Thule. / Gedichte von Goethe. / Für eine Singstimme / mit Begleitung des Piano-forte in Musik gesetzt, / und dem / Wohl- gebohrnen Herrn Anton Salieri k.k. ersten Hofkapellmeister / ... / hochachtungsvoll gewidmet von / Franz Schubert. / 5tes Werk.“ [D. 138, 162, 225, 226 and 367.]. 9 pages, oblong 4to (23.2 x 32.2cm). Engraved throughout. [PN] 789.


First edition of some of the composer's greatest and first celebrated songs, with Schubert's abbreviated autograph signature ("FrSch") paraph, and the number 61 to verso of final leaf, constituting his control mark. Partial ownership signature on lower right corner, the number "26" penned at top edge, spine strengthened, some light spotting and browning. A very good, wide-margined copy overall, with strong impression.


By 1821, Schubert's star was beginning to rise and the first published volumes of his music - at first entirely made up of his seemingly countless Lieder, the only genre for which he was famous during his short lifetime - began to appear. One of these 1821 volumes, the Opus 5 group of five songs composed to texts of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, is dedicated by the composer to Salieri, possibly in part because each of the songs contained within it was composed during 1815, Schubert's second-to-last year under Salieri's tutelage.
