Piano Sonata No.11 in F minor, D 625

The entire movement revolves around the rhythm of the first bars, and there is an extensive use of trills, an element which forms part of the initial motive. The second subject could be described as being "a consolatory version of the first." As is the case with other Schubert sonatas, the composer left the movement unfinished, breaking off at the beginning of the recapitulation. The movement has been completed by Paul Badura-Skoda, who recorded the sonata using his completed version. András Schiff recorded the movement as Schubert left it, without attempting to write an ending to it.
