Product description
First performed in 1839, the Preludes by Chopin are among the most loved, studied, and performed of all piano literature. In these brief works, Chopin displays his poetic genius in capturing a wide range of human emotions. A wide range of difficulty (intermediate to advanced) allows pianists to grow with the music over years of study. The spacious layout and practical fingerings are just two elements that make these Keith Snell editions outstanding for use by students and amateur pianists.
Fryderyk Chopin (1810-1849) was a Polish composer and piano virtuoso of French-Polish origin. He is considered one of the greatest masters of Romantic music. He wrote his works primarily for solo piano and all his other compositions also contain a piano part. His major piano works include mazurkas, waltzes, nocturnes, polonaises, instrumental ballads, etudes, preludes and sonatas. He also wrote two piano concertos, several chamber works and several songs on Polish texts. Some of his compositions were published posthumously.
