As a young composer, Franz Schubert gained much notoriety but struggled with financial and health issues. His String Quartet No. 14 in D minor, often called Death and the Maiden, is widely considered to be the composer's musical reckoning with death. Here, major themes from the first movement have been arranged for the serious string orchestra, uncomplicating many of the original passages while retaining Schubert's musical integrity. This advanced piece is a representative gem of the Romantic era, with its characteristic dynamic contrasts, chromatics, and programmaticism.
