[Publius]

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
