Chopin complete Polonaises?

They are full of challenging reaches but have absolutely wonderful melodies.

Okay, I'll bite.

I agree with you! But I have no idea what your point is, because the same can be said for the majority of Chopin's compositions (not to mention innumerable pieces by other composers as well).

Is your use of the adjective "complete" in the thread title perhaps a clue, i.e., do you mean your statement to apply to every single one of Chopin's polonaises? Actually, if that's the case, I would differ with you there—though it's really only some of the juvenilia I'm thinking of upon which I would base my dissent.

I seem to have a small reach on the piano only of a nineth and the greatest. also my right hand is larger than my left which presents problems aswell. I appologize for confusing you seeing it as you were. although I do find it quite odd that you were confusedd considering the fact that it was not written in a manner of comlexity at all. Although, you mentioned other composers having pieces as to the likeness of Chopin's polonaises, I just simply could not mention them all. I am also studying the Polonaises (which Chopin composed) and am getting used to stretching my hand.
