Franz Schubert (1797 – 1828) composed his Sonata No. 3 in E Major, D. 459 in 1816, published posthumously under the title Fünf Clavierstücke (sic) (Five Piano Pieces) in 1843, when brief character pieces were far more lucrative than lengthy sonatas. Cohesive, optimistic and bright, it constitutes Schubert’s first major piano work, since his first two sonatas remained unfinished. The composer was only 19 years old when he completed it.

It's often unfair to compare the Rolling Stones to the Beatles but in the case of the group's mono mixes, it's instructive. Until the 2009 release of the box set The Beatles in Mono, all of the Fab Four's mono mixes were out of print. That's not the case with the Rolling Stones. Most of their '60s albums – released on Decca in the U.K., London in the U.S. – found mono mixes sneaking onto either the finished sequencing or various singles compilations, so the 2016 box The Rolling Stones in Mono only contains 56 heretofore unavailable mono mixes among its 186 tracks.
