timmyab - Chopin waltz in E major: Message Board
timmyab's Comments
Written in about 1830 but never published within his lifetime.I only discovered it whilst looking for something to play for this ecital.I like it although it's rather repetative and I think it just needs a bit more Chopin magic to turn it into something special.I spent quite a bit of time trying to work out how to do the ending but never came up with a solution.It's probably like one of those chess problems that are so simple yet you just can't see it.
