Schubert injected his own spiritual characteristics into traditional chamber music. His chamber music works are all marked by Schubert, and they are the last works of Vienna classicism.

In "Impromptu" and "Musical Moment", Schubert made the piano sing a new lyric style. Their randomness, spontaneity and unexpected charm have all become the elements of romanticism.

Schubert's most popular songs are his more than 6 songs. These songs are directly produced from the inner feelings of poetry, and no one can surpass his overflowing talent and fresh feelings.
