What if music could tell a story without using any words at all?
In today’s episode of the Greenhouse Music Podcast, we step into the musical world of Franz Schubert — a composer who followed his heart, wrote over 600 songs, and created music that sounds like galloping horses, spinning wheels, and quiet prayers.
We explore:
- How Schubert’s friends formed secret music gatherings called Schubertiades
- What a Lied is and how music can “paint pictures”
- The mystery behind the famous Unfinished Symphony
- Why Ave Maria is one of the most misunderstood pieces of music
Plus, in What I’m Listening To This Week, we talk about Vitamin String Quartet and how modern songs can be transformed into beautiful string music — just like Schubert transformed feelings into sound.
This episode is perfect for curious kids, families, and classrooms who love stories, imagination, and discovering how music connects to emotions.
🎶 Listening tip: Keep your ears open for music that sounds like motion, emotion, and mystery.
