Overview of this score
This score brings together Frédéric Chopin’s mazurkas in an edition designed for pianists, teachers and enthusiasts of the great Romantic repertoire. It includes the mazurkas from Opp. 6, 7, 17, 24, 30, 33, 41, 50, 56, 59, 63, 67 and 68, along with several pieces catalogued as KK, as well as appendices and alternative versions. This makes it a particularly comprehensive resource for exploring an essential facet of Chopin’s piano writing.
True character miniatures, the mazurkas combine elegance, rhythmic freedom and harmonic richness. This collection offers the opportunity to work on highly contrasting atmospheres, from the most lyrical pieces to the more introspective works, while developing touch flexibility, a sense of rubato and subtle dynamic control. For the pianist, it is a valuable resource for refining their interpretation of the Chopinesque style and enriching both their concert and study repertoire.
Ewald Zimmermann’s musicological edition provides a sound framework for studying these works. It will appeal to anyone looking for a clear, durable and well-structured piano score, equally useful at the conservatory and at home. Thanks to the inclusion of alternative versions and appendices, this volume is also highly valuable for analysis, source comparison and deeper musical study.
