I love Schubert!
Schumann has composed a lot of beautiful pieces, such as his Piano Concerto, Kreisleriana and many more, but Schubert's melodies bring tears in my eyes!...
"I'm a free person; I feel terribly free. They could put me in chains and I still would be free because my thoughts would be mine - and that's all I want to have."
Arthur Rubinstein

It's a close one, but I'm going to have to go with Schubert!
