It's a beautiful movement, and I was told on youtube it was from a sonata in Ab major, likely the latter of the two that there are (as I was told).

Does anyone have the sheet music for this movement, or even the entire sonata?

Thanks,
Henrah

Have you got a D number?

I thought i had all the Schubert Sonatas, but cannot find another in A flat major.

Perhaps i accidently filed it under Schumann and deleted it ;D.

Could it be an Adagio??

I'm sorry, I don't have any more information than it's the slow movement of one of Schubert's sonatas in Ab major. Adagio seems like it would fit though, why don't we give it a try?
