The Piano Sonata in B major
D 575 by
Franz Schubert is a sonata for solo piano, posthumously published as
Op. 147 and given a dedication to
Sigismond Thalberg by its publishers. Schubert composed the sonata in August
1817.
The work takes approximately 24 minutes to perform.
Daniel Coren has noted that the first movement of this sonata is the only such movement in Schubert's sonatas where the recapitulation is an exact transposition of the exposition.[2]
