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!
