Chopin's
waltzes were –
contrary to, say, those
by Schubert – no
longer conceived for
dancing or for the
ballroom. These pieces
assumed the form and
function of idealized
concert waltzes, which
Chopin enjoyed performing
in the elegant and
exclusive art-loving
salons of Paris. A
particularly eloquent
example is the
“Grande Valse
brillante†op. 18
which, with its
multiplicity of charming
melodic ideas and moods
– now gently
rocking, now
overwhelming, now again
triumphantly jubilant
– became one of
Chopin's most popular
waltzes. The medium level
of difficulty allows even
less proficient pianists
to become familiar with
the
“brilliantâ€
side of Chopin through
this waltz.
