Frédéric Chopin
1810 – 1849
Frédéric Chopin wrote almost exclusively for the piano. His preludes, études, nocturnes, ballades, scherzos, polonaises, mazurkas, and waltzes invented the Romantic piano vocabulary almost single-handedly — pedal as colour, rubato as breathing, the singing right-hand line over a flexible accompaniment.
Chopin's entire surviving output is now central repertoire. The 24 Préludes Op. 28, the 27 Études, the Nocturnes, and the Ballades are studied and performed everywhere a piano is taken seriously.
