Joseph Schubert was born December 20, 1754 in Warnsdorf, Behemia (now Czech Republic) and received his first musical instruction from his father who was a cantor (a local church organist, choir master, and music teacher). He later traveled to Prague and then to Berlin to further study violin with Paul Kohn, the leader of the royal orchestra.
