Several most noteworthy compositions for chamber orchestra flowed from the fingertips of Schubert in the year 1816. Together with the first violin-piano sonatas, he completed two rondo concertantes, one being the F major piano quartet (D. 487). None appeared in print during the lifetime of the composer, but this was not due to the supposed long neglect of Schubert but rather the composer's youth. There again, Haydn’s one-time publisher, the distinguished Artaria, promptly published the H minor (D. 895) rondo written a decade later. The grandiose trio in E-flat major (D. 929), which condenses all the impressive traits of the composer’s passionately nostalgic, beautiful romantic style, was published in Probst in 1828, proving that Schubert, who tragically died just a few weeks later, stood on the threshold of a fantastically promising career. However, the sonata composed originally for the arpeggione in 1824 only appeared in print decades after the author’s death, in 1871. Camille Thomas performs this work on cello.
