For the Piano Sonatas: there is no uniform numbering of the sonatas. The Deutsch catalogue does not number the sonatas. In the Neue Schubert-Ausgabe the sonatas are also not numbered. There are several issues which make the numbering difficult: e.g. which of the incomplete sketches are to be included?... in what order are they to be presented?... The current list retains the following numbering systems:

Note that in Schubert's lifetime "Fantasie" (Fantasy) and "Sonate" (Sonata) had a somewhat overlapping meaning: by convention the Wanderer Fantasy was never numbered as a sonata, while D 894, first published as a Fantasie, always was.

Other columns in the table:

  • Op.: Opus number, "(p)" or "posth." indicates a posthumous publication.
  • D.: Deutsch number; between square brackets: former Deutsch number
