The\u00a0Piano Sonata in B minor<\/em><\/a>\u00a0is a sonata for solo piano by\u00a0Franz Liszt<\/a>. It was completed in 1853 and published in 1854 with a dedication to Robert Schumann<\/a> in return for his dedication of his Fantasie in C major, Op. 17 (published 1839) to Liszt. It took a long time for the Sonata to become commonplace in concert repertoire, because of its technical difficulty and negative initial reception due to its status as \u201cnew\u201d music. However by the early stages of the twentieth century, the piece had become established as a pinnacle of Liszt\u2019s repertoire and has been a popularly performed and extensively analyzed piece ever since. – Khatia Buniatishvili<\/a><\/p>\n
