This volume presents the complete score for Frédéric Chopin's 1839 solo piano composition, “Ballad No. 2 in F Major”. Frédéric François Chopin (1810 – 1849) was a Polish pianist and composer during the Romantic era. He wrote his music chiefly for the solo piano, but also wrote two piano concertos, a small number of chamber pieces, and a few songs to Polish lyrics. He was known as one of music's first ever superstars, a title which, along with his love life, association to political insurrection, and untimely death, led to his status as a prominent symbol of the Romantic era. Featuring large, clear note heads and wide margins, this edition is perfect for studying and following the music. Classic Music Collection constitutes an extensive library of the most well-known and universally-enjoyed works of classical music ever composed, reproduced from authoritative editions for the enjoyment of musicians and music students the world over.
