Product Description
Waltz in A minor, often designated as No. 19, is a waltz
for solo piano
composed by Frédéric Chopin. The waltz was written sometime
between 1843 and 1848, but was not published until 1860, after the composer's
death. The piece shows great sadness, while enclosing some episodes that hint
at happiness and hope. The first theme
of the piece uses a simple but effective melody, conveying a sad portrait, with
decorative ornaments used throughout. The second theme is
more interesting and lively, although it still has a certain sadness. About
halfway through the piece, there is a modulation into A major,
featuring a happy and joyful melody. The piece concludes with the main theme,
followed by a short coda.
The Level is Intermediate/Advanced
Intermediate and the duration is approximately 2.01 minutes. It could be played
in any type of recital/concert.
