Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

In 1827, at age 17, Frederick Chopin decided to try his hand at a piece for piano and orchestra. Unfortunately, he never really got the hang of composing for orchestra. He tended to write in block chords, the way one would write for piano, and his orchestrations reduce to piano accompaniment quite easily. Still, he can produce a fine moment with the orchestra.

This is one the best known tunes in all opera, and Fred gave Mozart a real workout. He felt it was good enough to publish, and it’s performed quite a bit today. This is a grand concerto-like piece that runs 20 minutes, and it’s Chopin showing off what he has learned at college. This was the piece that put Fred on the map, for it came to the attention of Robert Schumann in his early years as a music critic.

Chopin: Variations on ”La ci darem la mano” from Mozart’s ”Don Giovanni” in B-flat for Piano & Orchestra, Op. 2

Among the other works at age 17 are a number of short piano pieces that were published after the death of Frederick Chopin. This little mazurka is played by the greatest pianist of the 20th Century, Sergei Rachmaninov. Forgive the sound quality; it was recorded back in the 1920's.

Chopin: Mazurka in A minor, Op. 68/2

This is the first nocturne composed by Chopin, and he decided not to publish it. But it’s still one of his little gems. The pianist is the second greatest pianist of the 20th Century, Arthur Rubinstein, who spent his life as the world’s leading exponent of Chopin. His autobiography is deliciously scandalous; he knew everybody and bedded most of the women in the business. As a teenage pianist, he was my hero.

Chopin: Nocturne in E minor, Op. 72/1

In 1828, at age 18, Frederic Chopin took off for Berlin with a zoologist friend who was there to attend a scientific convention. Fred camped out at the opera house and the concert hall, where he heard young Felix Mendelssohn play piano.

By now, Fred was more confident of his output and proceeded to publish a number of pieces of varying quality. This first piano sonata has been overshadowed by his two later sonatas which are true giants of the repertory. For an 18 year old, there is definite promise.

Chopin: Piano Sonata #1 in C minor, Op. 4 (first movement)

The second movement is a short minuet.

(second movement)

The third movement is a short, expressive slow movement.

(third movement)

The finale is hair-raising.

(fourth movement)
