'They indulged in jokes at the expense of the spectacled boy', (1907). In 1808, the young Schubert applies for a choir scholarship to study at the Stadtkonvikt imperial school in Vienna. He 'presented himself for examination by the Court Capellmeisters and singing-master. A number of boys were to be examined at the same time, and whilst they were waiting they indulged themselves in mirth and jokes at the expense of the short, chubby-faced, spectacled boy clad in grey'. An episode from the life of Austrian composer Franz Schubert (1797-1828). From "Story-Lives of Great Musicians", by F.J. Rowbotham. [Wells Gardner, Darton & Co. Ltd, London, 1907]
