Scholars have long puzzled over Chopin's sole solo Fantasie, its highly individual form defying traditional genre boundaries. Is it a sonata movement, rondo, or a free fusion of march, recitative and chorale? For Chopin devotees, such questions matter little—this Fantasie stands as one of his greatest achievements. Upon completion, Chopin wrote: "The sky is bright, but my heart is afflicted by sorrow." This gloomy contrast defines the work, creating an exceptional composition from every perspective.
This Henle Urtext edition presents a faithful, authoritative score of this masterwork.
