Piano Sonata in A minor D. 845 / 3 Klavierstücke D. 946

Piano Sonata in A minor D. 845 and the Three Klavierstücke D. 946 are solo piano works by Franz Schubert, composed in 1825 and 1828 respectively. The sonata exemplifies Schubert's expansive melodic development and dramatic contrasts within classical sonata form, while the three Klavierstücke are more concentrated, exploring terse textures, sudden harmonic shifts and a late-period introspective character that signals his evolving approach to piano writing.
