The composer of my song is Franz Schubert.

Schubert was an Austrian composer who only

lived to the age of 31 but composed a great amount of work in his short time. Most of his works
are solos for voice and piano. However, he has also written many chamber works, symphonies,
and secular works. Throughout his career not only did her write a plethora of types of music but
also touched upon various styles and moods of music making him a diverse artist. Towards the
end of his career his creativity was booming as fast as his health was deteriorating. He was
diagnosed with typhoid fever and died on November 19th, 1828 in his brothers apartment. One
of his most well known works is Ave Maria whose Latin lyrics can be translated to Hail Mary, full
of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women,and blessed is the fruit of thy
womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God,pray for us sinners, now and in the hour of our death.
Amen. Originally the lyrics were in an English poem by Sir Walter Scott entitled The Lady of the
Lake.
