I've heard extremely good recordings of Schubert sonatas by
Christoph Eschenbach.  The real point of this posting, however,
is to mention an "oldie-but-goodie".  For those willing to
put up with a 78-transfer (although a good one) and search
out an import dealer, Arthur Schnabel's performance of the
(posthumous) B-flat Sonata is not to be missed.  It's still
available, to the best of my knowledge, on the German 
Dacapo label (German EMI's reissue label).  I found it at
Tower records, but any importer should be able to get it.
The performance towers above all others I've heard.  If
anyone is interested, I'll check my copy at home out and
get the exact record number.
