Summary of This Sheet Music
This volume brings together a wide panorama of Frédéric Chopin's waltzes for solo piano, allowing one to approach both the most famous pieces and rarer works. It includes the Grande Valse brillante op. 18, the three waltzes of opus 34, opus 42, as well as the op. 64 trilogy featuring the well-known "Minute" Waltz. The collection forms an excellent foundation for working on Chopin's style: cantabile, rhythmic flexibility, voice balance, and subtlety of rubato.
The collection also offers several posthumous waltzes (op. posth. 69 and 70), with two versions for some pieces, as well as references to the KK (Krakow) catalog, complemented by an appendix. This content makes it a particularly relevant edition for pianists wishing to deepen their understanding of Chopin's waltz repertoire, compare variants, and build a coherent program, from salon pieces to more intimate character works.
