Description

Frédéric Chopin spent the summer of 1844 at George Sand's country estate in Nohant, which provided him the creative freedom to compose his delicate Berceuse (Lullaby) and the B minor Sonata. The Berceuse, known for its dreamy and exquisite ambient sound, was originally conceived as "Variantes," as evidenced by a surviving sketch. Our revised edition of Chopin's works explores the genesis and source material of these compositions, reflecting the latest scholarly findings. This classic Henle publication presents these beloved works with a fresh new look.
