| Popis: | Simon Sechter, the Viennese organist, composer, and theorist, was also among the persons to whom Luib had written, and he had replied on 21 August: In answer to your question about my relationship with the gifted Schubert, the only thing I can tell you is that we respected one another without often meeting. A short time before his last illness he came to me with Herr Josef Lanz, a devoted friend of his, in order to study counterpoint and fugue, because, as he put it, he realized that he needed coaching in these. We had had but a single lesson when Herr Lanz appeared for the next one alone, to tell me that Franz Schubert was very ill and that he, Herr Lanz, now wished to have the lessons by himself. Scarcely had nine days passed and Schubert was dead. |
