Publisher Description: This volume offers pianists a unique opportunity to study and master Chopin's two piano concertos: The Piano Concerto No. 1 in E Minor, Op. 11, and the Piano Concerto No. 2 in F Minor, Op. 21. Although the composer wrote both works to launch his career as a concert artist, he soon abandoned the concert hall for the more intimate atmosphere of the salon and turned his creative attentions to the brilliant shorter works on which his reputation rests today. The concerti remain among the composer's few ventures in longer and more comprehensive musical forms. |
