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: numbering of the piano sonatas according to Franz Schubert's Werke: Kritisch durchgesehene Gesammtausgabe – Serie 10: Sonaten für Pianoforte. Leipzig: Breitkopf & Härtel, 1888. 15 sonatas — numbering of the piano sonatas according to Franz Schubert's Werke: Kritisch durchgesehene Gesammtausgabe – Serie 10: Sonaten für Pianoforte (Leipzig: Breitkopf & Härtel, 1888), the first publication that claimed to print the complete set of Schubert's piano sonatas. The Deutsch catalogue was yet to be created, so there are no Deutsch numbers in the original 1888 publication. This edition is reprinted from 1970 on by Dover Publications. IMSLP has facsimiles of many of the sonatas according to this first edition, including the numbering X,1 — X,2 — etc. on the score. n 19 sonatas, numbering according to the Neue Schubert-Ausgabe, Series VII/2, volume 1–3. numbering of the piano sonatas as encountered on Schubert page at Classical Archives and Schubert's Piano Sonatas template at IMSLP, with divergent numbers from Wiener Urtext Edition added in square brackets. 21 sonatas — numbering of Schubert's piano sonatas as most encountered on recordings etc., for instance on the Schubert page at Classical Archives. Also IMSLP follows this numbering for their page names of Schubert's piano sonatas. Wiener Urtext Edition follows the same numbering, except that Op. 122 is No. 8, the ensuing D. 571, 575, 613 and 625 all shift up one number, and D. 655 is an unnumbered fragment. numbering of the piano sonatas as encountered in Franz SCHUBERT: Catalogo delle composizioni at and Franz Schubert Catalogue: 610 - Oeuvres pour piano at 23 sonatas — numbering of the piano sonatas as encountered in Franz SCHUBERT: Catalogo delle composizioni at and Franz Schubert Catalogue: 610 - Oeuvres pour piano at . 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 , first published as a Fantasie, always was.
