Great video. It's amazing what a master can make of such simple melodic material! I'm inclined to -improve- by means of additional complexity, but Schubert makes every note tell. I think you covered the first movement of this sonata in a Livestream a while back. That inspired me to analyze the first movement of his Ab sonata for a class.

Thanks for the insight in Schuberts melodic work. It might be worth mentioning that the first melodic phrase is 7 instead of 8 bars long. Interesting how well it works; my first impression is that it works as he is playing with upbeat downbeat confusion and different upbeat length if seen as upbeat.

This a very valuable information and insights. I have become more and more aware of the beautiful music of Schubert. I think the first time I realized this was when I listened to his piano trio no. 2, opus 100. I thought (and still think) that the beauty of this piece is exquisite.

Many thanks for these videos. It adds so much to the music, if you know how it's crafted and it's also most helpful to understand other composers' works for own writing purposes. Could you please tell me which opus this is or the Deutschverzeichnis number?

Schubert is the master of melody. What looks like a simple tune becomes an incredibly rich and gorgeous masterpiece. Thanks so much for this delightful video. It's hard to imagine what he (Schubert) might have achieved and created if he had lived longer.

Delightful, must analyze this in dept. Such a pity he left so soon... Can only imagine Mozart living into his 50s, Beethoven 10 more years and this man at least that long.
What would our music vocabulary be in such a world

What is so special about how Schubert using Appoggiatura notes? it sounds like the previous chord tone is carried over to the next follow chord but that doesn't consider it as an Appoggiatura. Can you explain more

Thanks Gareth, once again a really enjoyable video giving useful insights to composition and Schubert-s writing. I feel his time as a chorister in his youth grounded him in good melody

Always excited to see another composer insights! Would love to hear about some of Clara Schumann-s composition work sometime!
