The B major Sonata numbers among Schubert's early piano sonatas. Composed in August 1817, it was not published until long after his death. The unusual key (for its time) shows the young Schubert's delight in musical experimentation; in the same year he composed other sonatas in D-flat major, A-flat major and f-sharp minor. Typically Schubertian are the surprising modulations, and the abrupt changes of mood between lyrical passages and dramatic outbursts. As the autograph score is lost, our editi...

Volume III of Schubert's Piano Sonatas includes the tuneful, dance-like Sonata in G major D 894 (1827), sometimes called the "Fantasie" sonata, as well as the three great sonatas in C minor, A major and B-flat major (D 958, 959 and 960), which were conceived as a triptych and constitute the composer's greatest contribution to the piano sonata genre. The works pay homage to the three late sonatas of Beethoven. This scholarly-critical Urtext edition is based on the definitive musical text of the "...
Romantic. Working from urtext sources, which have few or no markings, the editor has added fingering, dynamics, articulations, expression marks, and even tempo/ character markings to aid musical interpretation and performance. These are lively and articulate Viennese waltzes, generally twice as fast as other types of waltzes. Any waltz from this set may be played individually, or several may be performed as a group. However, they are wonderfully successful when all twelve are played consecutively...
