Very pleased to find this, it was hearing James Gibb play a Chopin Nocturne on Geraldine Peppin's piano that first made me interested in classical music. I had thought that aside from the CD of Rawsthorne and Stevens, no recordings of his performances existed. A lot of those BBC recordings were wiped and the tapes reused, a great shame.
Thanks for your question, and above all for appreciating this wonderful music-making. Like so many of Schubert's pieces, the names were supplied by the publishers long after his death. I have now added D.946 to identify them. It's a set that is generally simply called Three Piano Pieces - Drei Clavier-Stücke as first published in 1868 edited anonymously by Brahms. The original seems to be a 'draft' autograph rather than a fair copy, although they could well have ended up being (perhaps part of ) a set of Impromptus, like the D.899 and D.935.

Do you know the names of the pieces?
Beautiful recordings

Much better then “sir” András Schiff by many miles.
