Schubert Sonatas
on: July 22, 2010, 05:02:56 AM
Have just joined this site, and what a delight it is to be able to download music in this way! Have just downloaded the first seven Schubert sonatas (I already have a book of the last four).

A comment: your number ordering follows the opus number sequence (ie order of publication), and not the D number sequence. I had to check out the D numbers to make sure I placed my copies in the correct order.

It is a well-known fact (or should be) that the order of publication of Schubert's works bears little or no resemblence to the order in which he composed them. The ONLY  reliable sequence is the D numbers (OE Deutch's catalogue) - personally I wish publishers would ditch the opus numbers completely (it's very confusing), and use only the D numbers.
