At the age of 19, Franz Schubert wrote the following in his diary: "O Mozart! Immortal Mozart! You have impressed upon our souls countless impressions of a brighter, better life!" On Tuesday's Performance Today, hear some of these impressions reflected in Schubert's Symphony No. 5, performed at the Windham (NY) Chamber Music Festival.
