| Franz Schubert: Piano Sonata In G Op.78 D 894: Piano: Instrumental WorkG Major Op. 78 D 894-Schubert s tuneful and buoyant Sonata in G major was published in April 1827 as a Fantasy or Sonata to quote the heading of its first movement. His first reviewer noted that the beloved and talented Lieder composer has presented the music world with a fantasy in which he lets his inventiveness loose. He presents the pianist with a harmonic indulgence without however amassing too many difficulties to complicate the execution .Our scholarly-critical Urtext edition based on the definitive New Schubert Edition presents the sonata in a spacious new engraving with practical page turns. The work is introduced by an updated Foreword (Ger/Eng) and detailednotes on key questions of performance practice e.g. pedalling and Schubert s characteristic way of writing accents. Rounding off the edition is a Critical Commentary (Eng) containing alternative readings of relevance to the performer.
