Sonata in B-flat major, D 960 / Moments Musicals, D 780

Album by Franz Schubert & Dejan Lazić

Sonata in B-flat major, D.960 and Moments Musicaux, D.780 are piano works by Austrian composer Franz Schubert, composed in the 1820s (the sonata in 1828 and the Moments Musicaux in the mid-1820s). The sonata represents Schubert's late, expansive pianistic writing with long-breathed, song-like themes and broad harmonic exploration characteristic of early Romantic sonatas, while the Moments Musicaux are a set of shorter piano pieces that showcase varied rhythms, contrasting moods and concise lyrical invention typical of his piano miniatures and their place in nineteenth-century repertoire.
