Description

This is Frédéric Chopin's first scherzo, "The Scherzo No. 1 in B minor, Op. 20". This dark and dramatic piece was composed between 1831-1832 and was dedicated to Thomas Albrecht. 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. Featuring large, clear note heads and wide margins, this edition is perfect for studying and following the music.
