Book Description

Publication Date: 1983

Sparkling, graceful and tinged with an ineffable melancholy, Chopin's waltzes succeed in conveying an air of mystery while retaining their ballroom splendor. His scherzos are truly novel metamorphoses of the form — tumultuous emotional outpourings that frequently attain tragic heights. This volume includes 15 Waltzes and 4 Scherzos. Republication of works from an authoritative early edition.

1.0 out of 5 stars Beware NOT PADEREWSKI edition! False advertising., July 4, 2009

A. Lin "musician mom" (CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Waltzes and Scherzos (Paperback)

Beware!!! This is not the Paderewski edition, I just received this book. I heard Dover no long print the Chopin Paderewski edition. The new book will not be the Paderewski edition. It is a big difference, look carefully at the book, the cover does not indicate Paderewski. Don't be mislead by the false title description of this product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Edition, July 26, 2003

Alan Beggerow (Sterling, IL USA) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Waltzes and Scherzos (Paperback)

Notes are easy to read, format is well laid out, all the waltzes and scherzi from a major romantic composer, and at a very reasonable price. What more could a music lover or pianist ask for? Highly recommended!
