CHOPIN POLONAISE BRILLANTE C MAJOR OP 3 AND DUO CONCERTANT E MAJOR

Cello and Piano

Publisher: Henle
Format: Softcover
Composer: Frederic Chopin
Editor: Ernst-Gunter Heinemann

Chopin composed several works for cello, influenced by his friend the famous cellist Auguste Franchomme; the Grand Duo Concertant, an opera paraphrase on Meyerbeer's Rober le Diable, is among them. Franchomme personally participated in the elaboration of the cello part. The early Polonaise op. 3 with slow introduction was written by Chopin for the cello-playing Polish Prince Radziwill; Chopin cleverly underlays the cantabile melodies of the cello with fireworks of pianistic brilliance. A dazzling, energy-laden early masterpiece!
