About this work
Schubert's Sonata in A major, D. 959, is presented here complete for solo piano. Unlike several catalogue entries divided by movement, this download gathers the entire sonata in a single document.
The ZIP archive contains one 32-page PDF entitled Sonata in A Major D.959. The file must therefore be extracted before reading or printing. No MIDI file is associated with this entry.
Locate the four movements and add bookmarks before beginning work. In the first, distinguish the assertive chords from the more lyrical passages; in the Andantino, retain an inner pulse even when the argument fragments. The last two movements chiefly demand an overall view and steady endurance. The historical catalogue indicates public-domain status without retaining the detailed notice of the edition contained in the archive.
