Schubert D 784 for Master's Audition?
on: August 02, 2016, 09:59:09 AM
Hey y'all,

I absolutely love Schubert's Sonata in a Minor (D784), and was wondering if it was appropriate for a Master's audition (For McGill or UBC), as it frankly does not require the same technical facility as the more popularly played Beethoven sonatas (op. 81a, 53, 101, 109, 110, 111).

Also, I was more generally curious as to what Classical sonatas are standard for a Master's audition, because a complete Classical-period sonata is on every school's audition requirements list that I have looked at. Is it more standard to perform one of the beastly Beethoven sonatas, because of their inherent difficulty; or is it also standard to see Mozart, Haydn, or Schubert?

Thanks,

Ian
