The Piano Sonata No. 2, Concord, Mass. 1840–60 (commonly known as the Concord Sonata) is a piano sonata by Charles Ives. It is one of the composer's best-known and most highly regarded pieces. A typical performance of the piece lasts around 45 minutes. Some material in the Concord Sonata dates back as far as 1904, but Ives did not begin substantial work on it until around 1911 and largely completed the sonata by 1915.

Charles Ives left his Concord Sonata for solo piano unfinished for a reason. But what that reason was remains unclear – which, says Philip Clark, presents a challenge to pianists who tackle the work on record. This is a story about knowing when to leave well alone, about a composition that remained unfinished not because of writer’s block or an untimely composerly demise but because Charles Ives chose to finish his Concord Sonata by wilfully leaving it unfinished. In Ives’s Piano Sonata No 1, finished in 1910, unbarred streams of consciously extending, compressing, collapsing phrases already sound like a music impatient with its loveless marriage to notational convention. The Concord Sonata moves that impatience to the next level, the whole composition but a lucky escape away from fracturing at the structural seams.
