Impromptus D 899 / Sonata D 960

Album by Franz Schubert & Rudolf Buchbinder

Impromptus D.899 and Sonata D.960 are solo piano works by Austrian composer Franz Schubert, composed in 1827–1828. They exemplify Schubert's late piano style, combining songlike melody and expanded harmonic language with contrasts of intimate lyricism and broad, sonorous textures, and they occupy a central place among his final and most structurally ambitious keyboard compositions.
