I have a book at school The Schubert Song Companion or some similar title. Each
of his 600 plus songs gets about 1-2 pages of background and some analysis.
One of the appendixes (appendages?) categorizes by key. I will try to remember
to bring the book home and share a few of its insights.
...and what of changes in the pitch of the basic tuning A in different times
and places?

I was under the impression that the moods associated with different keys
were lost when we adopted equal-temperament tuning?
If this is so, then neither absolute pitch nor perfect pitch would have
much to do with it.

I recently played (for fun) the wonderful Auf dem Strom. The pianist
spontaneously said,Why don't we play it in Eb instead of E? The singer
was happier, I was happier, and the pianist had no problems. I don't know
what Schubert would have thought, but if your pianist can handle it, I

I've played it in E, Eb, and D, depending on the singer's range. It
works well in all those keys. Most lieder can be transposed to fit the
singer's range...probably the composers expected that. The biggest
transposing challenge is for the pianist.

You're correct. When I wrote that, I really was referring to playing it
on the F/Bb double (nominally treated as F horn), so

That's right. I've done it on a horn crooked in E/A and the fingering was easy.

Good call! Auf dem Strom was originally written for a tenor,
specifically Ludwig Tietze, who sang it at its premier on March 26, 1828
with Schubert himself at the piano and J.R. Lewy
While not specified in the score, Schubert premiered this piece with
tenor voice, with JR Lewy on horn and with the composer on piano. It
occurred within months of the composer's death.

are much more rich with a tenor. When I
