Free Waltzes And Scherzos Ebooks To Download
Sparkling, graceful and tinged with an ineffable melancholy, Chopin’s waltzes succeed in conveying an air of mystery while retaining their ballroom splendor. His scherzos are truly novel metamorphoses of the form — tumultuous emotional outpourings that frequently attain tragic heights. Prepared by Carl Mikuli, Chopin's student and teaching assistant, this edition of these innovative works is particularly authoritative, reflecting Mikuli's knowledge and understanding of Chopin's music. This volume includes: Waltzes Op. 18 Op. 70, Nos. 1–3 Op. 34, Nos. 1–3 E Minor, (Op. posth.) Op. 42 E Major (Op. posth.) Op. 64, Nos. 1–3 Op. 69, Nos. 1–2 Scherzos Opp. 20, 31, 39, 54.

Beware!!! This is not the Paderewski edition, I just received this book. I heard Dover no long print the Chopin Paderewski edition. The new book will not be the Paderewski edition. It is a big difference, look carefully at the book, the cover does not indicate Paderewski. Don't be mislead by the false title description of this product.
I inadvertently bought two copies of this, and my piano teacher welcomed the extra--it wasn't worth paying to send the extra back. He's young and very experienced, unlike me--my eyes prefer the creamy Henle paper and clean typography and my clumsy fingers, the easy-to-follow fingering. Also, it's not clear that this Dover edition is the Paderewski edition based on anything in the book--it seems to have been edited by a 19th century Pole, though, just not Paderewski. I did break down and buy the Henle, too, which costs almost three times as much, and doesn't have the Scherzos (which I can't play anyway), but does have two versions of several of the posthumous waltzes.Bottom line: if you aren't spoiled by Henles, this is a good deal, though. The print is crisp enough, and not too cramped like some bargain versions can be.
Don't waste money thinking this is Paderewski edition.If this can be any edition, can be a good deal, but if you need Paderewski edition, this is not. I am not sure understand the difference.
My children all play Chopin ... I am not talented enough or maybe I just don't have time to learn ... but they say these are the best books.Although having it spiral bound would be better, it's wonderful to have these resources used at great prices!! For the songs that get played over and over again we either copy them or rip the binding out of the book. Of course it could be taken to a professional book binder to have it spiral bound but we try to do things as frugally as possible.Great buy!!
For Students and Professionals alike, you cannot go wrong buying this edition of Chopin Walzes and Scherzos. They are from a respected source, priced right, and printing is clear and easy to read.
Notes are easy to read, format is well laid out, all the waltzes and scherzi from a major romantic composer, and at a very reasonable price. What more could a music lover or pianist ask for? Highly recommended!
The newer version of this books is no longer a reprint from Paderewski Edition. It is now a reprint from Schirmer Edition. The Editor is Carl Mikuli. Not Bronarski or Turczynski. Also, if you buy the newest version, it comes in 'Lay Flat Sewn-Binding', which is Dover's improved version. The older version used to fall apart. Some sellers still sell the older version at lower price. The actual price for this new and improved version is $12.95
Superb edition of the Waltzes (Mikuli) with excellent binging (the Dover Lay Flat Sewn-Binding.) Scherzos are also well edited and formatted. And for the price, you cannot beat this edition. The whole Dover Chopin series should be part of every library.
