So whats your favourite   

Like omg, how about adding more options?

[pianochild]

There

[Kassaa]

Ok better, but you should list every work separate.

[jre58591]

oh god, not another one of these threads.

anyways, i may as well say. my favorite chopin piece (at the moment) is scherzo no 2 in b flat minor.

[phil13]

Ummm... none of 'em on that list. The Barcarolle comes close, but.... no, not close enough.

What you need to do, pianochild, if you're going to do one of these threads (there have already been several, and none of them turned out too friendly) is list every single one of Chopin's works. That way, NOBODY can complain that their favorite isn't on there. Otherwise, this will turn into a feuding club (probably will anyway, but...meh.) Go find EVERY SINGL ONE. because you know there will be someone who loves his obscure works- most likely many of them.

For me, the Polonaise-Fantasie is a masterpiece, a work of perfection.

You gotta love how he just groups the 3 Sonatas together. Cute little pieces they are. 

[lisztisforkids]

This is probaly just your favorite pieces... Your leaving so many out!

The second scherzo does indeed rule. I voted for it and the Opus 10 Etudes.

I have rubinstein's recording of it, and it's the best i heard yet

[ihatepop]

You stole my idea....

[cloches_de_geneve]

Why are the other scherzos not on the list? I don't like scherzo 2, find number 1 and 4 superior. Note that the tristesse etude is included within the op 10 etudes. It makes no sense to group the three sonatas together and put over an hour of music on the same level as the raindrop prelude.

Whell im sorry but i just wanted to do a small poll of apparently his greatest works, also to give me an ideo of what ones to learn. Id rather not sit all day adding more options.

That's okay I already did. It's more like 40-45 minutes, not all day.
