I wish they had Piano Sonata No.3, my favorite of his piano sonatas, but for that you need to turn to YouTube:

The good news is that in addition to recordings, you can also find the sheet music online for free at IMSPL, another incredibly useful site, albeit with a much more specific focus than the Internet Archive. Also known as the Petrucci Music Library, it aims to collect and make available at one site all public domain sheet music!
