Reproduced in high quality with wide margins, this edition is perfect for students and musicians with an interest in Chopin's seminal work. Frédéric François Chopin (1810 - 1849) was a Polish pianist and composer during the Romantic era. He wrote his music chiefly for the solo piano, but also wrote two piano concertos, a small number of chamber pieces, and a few songs to Polish lyrics. He was known as one of music's first ever superstars, a title which, along with his love life, association to political insurrection, and untimely death, led to his status as a prominent symbol of the Romantic era. Classic Music Collection constitutes an extensive library of the most well- known and universally-enjoyed works of classical music ever composed, reproduced from authoritative editions for the enjoyment of musicians and music students the world over.
