I'd like to share with you my attempt to set Schubert's great a-minor sonata from 1823 for orchestra,. Here the 1st movement (please listen with headphones):

Doesn't have this sonata a wonderful symphonic dimension?

Gerd, this is another wonderful surprise. I'm looking forward to the rest (in a non-entitled way, of course).

Amazing how it somehow sounds like early Bruckner. Or am I way off? Great stuff, Gerd. Many thanks!

I always like to hear new orchestrations. You have done a commendable job. Thanks  :)

Thank you for your positive feedback! Here now the whole sonata. I don't know a piano sonata which is so fitting for orchestration as this one...!
