I knew about Leonard, but I did not know about Franz.

Yep..that Ol’ “Devil’s Interval” will get you every time!

I am glad they changed the name of the “Sackbutt” to “Trombone”. I don’t know if I could ever listen to a marching band with a “straight” face if a whole section were playing the “Sackbutt”.

I recommend Franz Schubert: A Biography by Elizabeth Norman McKay. It's become the definitive book on the composer, and it's quite eye-opening.

I also recommend "The Double Life of Franz Schubert", a British TV production available on DVD.
