It was there in adverse conditions that Chopin completed his ?Préludes? op. 28 which he hadalready begun in Paris. According to George Sand the famous ?Raindrop Prélude? (no. 15) is said to have been composed during a storm on Mallorca; however other sources show that the first sketches were alreadymade in Paris. Our single edition has been taken from the revised edition of the ?Préludes? (HN 882). Detailed information on the genesis of this work and an evaluation of the sources can be downloaded free-of-charge.

Pedagogical in nature these editions offer insightful interpretive suggestions pertinent fingering and historical and stylistic commentary.The name Frédéric Chopin (1810-1849) is synonymous with the Piano.
