Preludes Piano

Frederic Chopins stay with George Sand on Mallorca in the winter 1838/1839 was ill-fated. Yet Chopin still managed to finish his Preludes there which he had begun to compose in Paris. Todays interpreter not only has to deal with numerous variant readings but also with corrupt performance traditions. The Preludes are the first edition to be completed inour comprehensive Chopin revisions; the editor has taken the latest sch olarly findings into account and in the musical text brings to light established variants as well as others which are to be found in the sources. Edited by Norbert MAfllemann with fingerings by Hermann Keller.
