Background: Music for piano occupies a position of importance in Schnittke's extensive catalogue, despite its relatively restricted dimensions. The piano works in Schnittke's late period, after a serious stroke in 1985, reveal him struggling with a sense of suffering and the fragility of existence. In this perspective the Sonata may evoke the image of Mahler: and this is not only due to its monumental proportion and cosmic scale, but also for the mingling of victory and defeat.
