Sonatas, D 959 & D 960
Album by Franz Schubert & David Deveau
Sonatas, D 959 & D 960 are a pair of piano sonatas by Franz Schubert, composed in 1828. They are late works that expand the piano sonata form with long-spun melodies, sudden harmonic shifts and contrasted moods, and they occupy the closing phase of Schubert's career as his harmonic language moves toward the Romantic era.
