Franz Schubert's Symphony No. 8 in B minor, D 759 (sometimes renumbered as Symphony No. 7, in accordance with the revised Deutsch catalogue and the Neue Schubert-Ausgabe), commonly known as the Unfinished Symphony (German: Unvollendete), is a musical composition that Schubert started in 1822 but left with only two movements-though he lived for another six years. A scherzo, nearly completed in piano score but with only two pages orchestrated, also survives.

Wednesday, October 22, 2014. Schubert - Symphony No. 8 In B Minor 'Unfinished'. Franz Schubert's Symphony No. 8 may be the most famous unfinished work in the symphonic repertoire. The two completed movements of the symphony were completed in 1822, as well as a third movement scherzo in piano score with two pages in full score. The six symphonies Schubert composed before the Unfinished don't resemble it in depth or drama, but Schubert could be a quite dramatic composer when he chose to be as can be heard in his lied Der Erlkönig as well as music in other forms. One theory is that the composition of the symphony coincides with Schubert's diagnosis of syphilis. The music does modulate to B major until the first theme in B minor appears and is expanded into the ending of the emphatic final cadence.

Symphony No. 8 in B Minor, D. 759, "Unfinished": Symphony No. 759, "Unfinished": IV. Allegro moderato (Reconstructed by Mario Venzago). 30. Digital Booklet: Schubert: The Finished "Unfinished" (Symphony No. 8, D. 759, Reconstructed by Mario Venzago). I'm inclined to agree with the musicologists who have argued that Schubert may have composed this entr'acte as the finale to his B minor symphony, as it has the same scoring and matches the tone of the existing movements. The only thing that is new here is Venzago's last-minute recollection of the opening bars towards the end, before the surge to the conclusion.
At the performance, the Finale of the Third Symphony in D major was added, but this experiment was not adhered to subsequently. As a matter of fact the two finished movements form a complete whole. The mystery surrounding the composition of the symphony is one of the most intriguing puzzles in the entire realm of music. Neither of these contenders, however, is on the exalted level of the two completed movements, nor is it easy to understand how the B minor Entr’acte could ever have made a satisfactory finale. Other anomalies include the strange fact that while Schubert repeatedly refers to the succeeding C major Symphony (the ‘Great’) in letters to his friends, the ‘Unfinished’ never gets so much as a mention.
