HAVE YOU WONDERED why there seems to be so much Schubert in the air? Jan. 31, 1997 was the 200th anniversary of Franz Schubert's birth. This Friday, at 8:00 pm, the Apple Hill Chamber Players of New Hampshire will be performing a special all-Schubert Valentine's Day concert in the Longy School's Edward Pickman Concert Hall. Their program will feature the famous "Trout" Quintet in A (Op. 114, D. 667) and other pieces.

...this plus Martha crafting swizzle sticks out of orange peels--yes, orange peels--not costly antique crystal. Few give credit to the stylemaker for her egalitarianism (in that spirit, one of her guests this year is the thinking man's proletarian, Dennis Franz, who swings by Martha's Connecticut home for a glass of punch).

That means viewers can look forward to a new round of holiday specials from Kathie Lee Gifford and Martha Stewart, who invites NYPD Blue's Dennis Franz to join her for the merrymaking and cookie baking...
...distant age of sensitive nineteenth-century guys, Franz Schubert joined the bandwagon of paesan Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and fellow German Romantics, over-analyzing every passing emotion and fluttering of the heart. Here in the twenty-song cycle of Die Schone Mullerin (The Fair Maiden of the Mill), Schubert indulges his delicate sensibilities with harmonically textured compositions set to the often silly poetry of Wilhelm Muller. Schubert wrote more than 600 of these "lieder" (songs), elevating it to a major musical art form...
