The Violin Sonata No. 4 (also known as the Duo or Grand Duo) in A major, Op. posth. 162, D 574, for violin and piano by Franz Schubert was composed in 1817. This sonata, composed one year after his first three violin sonatas, was a much more individual work, showing neither the influence of Mozart, as in these previous works, nor of Rossini, as in the contemporaneous 6th Symphony.

Structure

The Sonata has four movements:

  1. ’'Allegro moderato’' (A major), sonata form

  2. ’'Scherzo: presto’' (E major), with C major trio

  3. ’'Andantino’' (C major), loose ternary form

  4. ’'Allegro vivace’' (A major), sonata form
