Schubert

It is needless to say that it is how important thing to sing when each word of the words is fully understood on the occasion of singing a vocal music text in music.
But there are not many sites or books which explain the word for word translation of the text.
This page was made by this viewpoint so that it could answer such needs at all. Though it is still only on the amateur stage, I want to make this a better page by everyone's support. I am happy if I could have an advice to me about a point to modify.

Though there are many fundamentally common words among various masses, each mass has its slightly different contents,structure and backgrounds.On the top of these contents,I tryed to explain its proper nouns and the special words and phrases used in masses as well.

　You can understand more easily the words if you study the text,listening the actual performance of CDs

　In case of printing,you are advised to download the excel file first and make an adjustments of its lay-out of the text.
（If you don't use MicrosoftExcel,you can make use of free soft OpenOffice.org

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Schubert's brief personal history

Jan.31 1797 born～Nov.191828 died

　Franz Schubert
He was born in Vienna in 1797, the son of a schoolteacher, Schubert was brought up as a Roman Catholic and educated in the Imperial Chapel's choir school, which is home of the now famous Vienna Boys Choir. After studying music with Antonio Salieri, an influential musician of the period , he embarked on an abortive and short-lived career as a schoolteacher, before settling for life as a freelance composer/musician.

In spite of having attracted a circle of artistic friends who did much to encourage and sustain him, he led a precarious and often penniless existence. Despite his dogged determination, he failed to establish himself as an operatic composer and he was equally unsuccessful in achieving any of the prestigious conductorships for which he applied several times. He was a prolific composer, in his short lifetime writing over 600 lieder (German art songs) including 3 song cycles, 9 symphonies, 15 string quartets, 21 piano sonatas, several operas and operettas, many choral works, 6 masses, and numerous other works. On his premature death by typhoid in 1828 his epitaph aptly read: "The Art of Music here entombs a rich possession but even finer hopes."Franz Schubert".
