1932 Austrian Based Composer Franz Opera Role Schubert Singer Tauber
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the enchanting moment when Austrian opera singer Richard Tauber, based in Britain, steps into the role of his musical idol, Franz Schubert, during a performance of the opera "Blossom Time" in 1932. Tauber, known for his mellifluous voice and captivating stage presence, was a leading figure in the world of classical music and theater during the early 20th century. Born in Vienna in 1891, Tauber began his musical career as a choirboy in the famed Vienna Boys' Choir. He later studied voice and acting in Germany and made his operatic debut in 1914. Tauber's unique ability to connect with audiences and bring depth and emotion to his performances made him a favorite of critics and fans alike. In the role of Schubert, Tauber not only paid homage to the composer's music but also brought the composer's spirit to life on stage. Schubert, a prolific composer known for his Lieder (art songs), symphonies, and chamber music, died at a young age of syphilis in 1828. Tauber's portrayal of Schubert in "Blossom Time" allowed audiences to experience a glimpse into the composer's world and imagination. This photograph, taken during a performance at the Savoy Theatre in London, captures Tauber in the midst of a powerful moment, his eyes closed as he pours his heart into the music. The image is a testament to Tauber's artistry and his deep connection to the music of Schubert, which he held in the highest regard. The historical significance of this photograph lies not only in the rare depiction of Tauber in this role but also in the glimpse it provides into the rich history of opera and classical music.
