Editors: Ulrich Leisinger Notes on interpretation: Robert D. Levin Fingering: Paul Badura-Skoda Schubert's popular Three Piano Pieces D 946 and two fragments from the same period, completed by Robert D. Levin, closely based on Schubert's material. Complementing the Impromptus and Moments musicaux, the Wiener Urtext Edition also presents a new edition of the three late piano pieces D 946. Careful study of Schubert's autographs has led to various retouchings in the musical text, in D 946/2 for instance to the supplementation of a bar. The edition offers a new approach to the issue of the second episode of D 946/1, deleted by Schubert in the autograph, but included in the posthumous first edition and meanwhile embraced in modern concert practice. Urtext based on all relevant sources o New solutions for problematic passages o Cautious completion of the fragments, closely based on Schubert's material o Notes on interpretation for a deeper understanding of Schubert's musical text The separate edition of these repertoire pieces that have enjoyed increasing popularity since the 1970s has been expanded to include the two piano piano pieces D 916B/C that have survived as fragments and have been completed by Robert D. Levin in close observance of Schubert's compositional principles. Like the three piano pieces D 946, both works originate from the context of the Impromptus and have survived in the composer's autograph drafts. Their inclusion in this volume completes the picture of Schubert's late keyboard output and provides new impulses for the pianistic concert repertoire.
