The classic eclectic and fast-paced piano waltz by Frederic Chopin. Positive concert grand piano in a small hall. Waxing and waning tempos and dynamics.
The start to this Chopin waltz is elegant and almost sedate. But then the contrast is shown by very fast sections that leave you whirling and spinning with delight.
Bristling with energy, this lively waltz for solo piano surges with huge confidence and presence. Requires great skill from the performer to keep up with the pace. Regarded by some as the first of Chopin's waltzes to be published.
