Schubert's Sonata In A Minor subtitled Arpeggione was written in 1824 and was inspired by an instrument invented by Mr. Georg Staufer which Schubert referred to as an Arpeggione. The instrument was a mixture of a Guitar and a Cello and was held between the knees like a Cello but had frets on the fingerboard like a Guitar. This edition of the work has been wonderfully arranged for Flute and Piano by Peter Lukas Graf.
