Schubert: Sonata in A Major, Opus 120 [Alf:00-27624]

Franz Schubert was equally at home writing piano, vocal and chamber music. His unique style is characterized by great lyric beauty coupled with a bold harmonic vocabulary. This sonata was written for the young pianist Josefine von Kĥhler during the summer of 1819, and features warm melodies and charming harmonies. The autograph for this sonata is lost, and therefore this edition is based on the Sonaten fĵr Pianoforte, originally published by Breitkopf and H¤rtel, Leipzing, in 1888. 24 pages.
