Frédéric Chopin: Preludes Written partly during Chopin’s catastrophic wintertime stay on Majorca, these are some of the composer’s most mysterious works. Schumann said of them:
"They are sketches, beginnings of études, or, so to speak, ruins, individual eagle pinions, all disorder and wild confusions.”
The 24 Preludes are written in all major and minor keys in the order of the circle of fifths. The title (obviously an allusion to Bach’s preludes and fugues) can be a misleading one, as they are not introductions to anything, except possibly to the next prelude in the series – each piece is perfectly capable of standing on its own, although Op. 28 is often treated as a cycle and given a complete performance.

Chopin Preludes and DipABRSM

Dear fellows:
I have a very simple question: the Preludes by Chopin are not included in the DipABRSM syllabus, but I think some of them meet the required grade. So, what your opinion about which pair/group is best suited to that?
By the way, do you have another non-syllabus work that is possible?
Thanks in advance and best wishes!

| What customers said about pianostreet.com: |
"All of my students are members of Pianostreet and many of my teacher colleagues have joined as well.
It is an excellent resource for students and teachers alike and there is very rarely any need to visit another website or music store in search of sheet music."

"As a frequent user of pianostreet.com I find it easy to navigate, great value for money and very professional. The pieces are all well-graded and the audio is really useful, especially for pieces not heard before. I have recommended the site to many of my friends who play the piano. Keep up the good work."
Paul, Llansannan, UK. |
"I was in Poland the past summer to give 2 concerts. At the last minute they requested some Chopin, which I had not brought with me. So, I google-searched for classical downloads and found your site. I was able to print out excellent editions of the pieces I needed within minutes. To find the scores locally would have been inpossible as it was a smaller town, the nearest music store 45 minutes away."

"Piano Street has been a wonderful tool to me as both a pianist and a piano teacher. I can browse the collection for pieces I want to play and/or have my students play. The difficulty rating system that Piano Street uses enables me to search by difficulty level for pieces at my students' various playing levels. It is helpful that many of the scores include an audio clip of the piece being played. I have recommended to my advanced students that they also join Piano Street since getting sheet music from there is a much less expensive alternative to ordering and paying for the music.
