This is a work whose classification as a sonata remains debatable. This is due to the fact that the work comprises five movements in total, and Schubert explicitly designated only the initial two movements (D 459) as 'Sonata' during their composition. When published in 1843, it was titled 'Five Piano Pieces,' and three further movements (D 459A) were appended. While Schubert's own intention regarding whether the latter three movements were composed as supplementary to Sonata D 459 remains uncertain, they are consequently regarded as a unified five-movement composition due to the stylistic coherence among the five movements (an opening Allegro and a finale, with a slow movement and a dance movement interspersed) and the logical tonal progression (the five movements are in E major, E major, C major, A major, and E major respectively, exhibiting a descent by thirds).
