Therese Grob

Therese Grob (16 November 1798 – 17 March 1875) was a singer and friend of the composer Franz Schubert in his teenage years.

[3] The widowed mother continued to run the small silk-weaving business that Heinrich Senior had established.

Therese had an attractive soprano voice, and the young Heinrich was a talented pianist and violinist.

Therese sang in the Lichtental parish church, which Schubert had attended since he was a child.

Schubert assembled an album of songs for Therese's brother Heinrich, the last of which is dated 1816.

Eight years after the composer's death, on 14 September 1836, Schubert's brother Ignaz married Therese's aunt Wilhelmine.
