17 Well-Known Original Pieces in Progressive Order

Composer: Frederic Chopin
Editor: Sylvia Hewig-Troscher
Format: Softcover

Although Frederic Chopin was one of the greatest piano virtuoso's of his time, even pianists of moderate technical ability can enter into his Romantic, magical realm. His mastery was such that his own, unmistakeable style is tangible even in his shorter, less difficult pieces such as his mazurkas and waltzes. This selection offers a progressive introduction to the musical language of this Polish-French master.
