Musicology:
Written in December 1816, Schubert's Skolie was no doubt composed for either a Christmas or New Year's celebration. A skolion was originally a Greek drinking song in which the cup is passed from drinker to drinker until the cup is drained and the drinkers are drunk. This skolion is a triple-time drinking song in G major whose simple melody could be sung by the most inebriated party guest and whose straightforward piano accompaniment could be played by the composer while deep in his cups. -
