Product Description

There is a Third Violin Part as an alternative for Viola and an optional Contrabass Part which makes the piece playable by a String Orchestra. Chopin believed Opus 10 No 3 to be the most beautiful melody he ever composed. This adaptation has had a change of time signature to match the more modern interpretation. Much of the "pianistic gymnastics" have been smoothed out. The players should make great use of Rubato and it is suggested listening to Lang Lang's performance on youtube (www.youtube.com/watch/?v=8yjnLmv1hHU) to capture the style and ambience intended in this arrangement.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
