Chopin (from Carnaval) [Alf:00-14357]

Simplified Masterwork Solo. Schumann and Chopin were contemporaries. Both were fine pianists and wrote many important works for solo piano, each in his own distinctive style. "Chopin" is from Carnaval, a suite of 22 varied pieces. In this piece, Schumann vividly captures Chopin's compositional style in the lyrical melody and flowing, broken-chord accompaniment.
