Yes, it fits perfectly ;-) It's a fake, constructed of a few "chopinesque" phrases. But the fff makes no sense in such a short fragment and the bottom A for so long at the beginning of a ( even longer planned ) piece seems to be too artificial. And it just sounds a little cheap, can't help it.

@@paulmeisel339 Pretty clever fake if it is one. His use of diminished 7ths and chromatic themes is doable, but there is a lot more to it than that.

The descending passage on diminished, ferocius, sevenths is basically the entire pattern on op 25 no 11, which is also in A Minor. It is at least something where Chopin intervened. It could be a improvisation, an exercise for a student, a sketch he considered not good enough... but you can hear Chopin on this waltz
@KrystofDreamJourney29 күн бұрын
Definitely, it could be either an exercise for a student, or undeveloped abandoned idea for 3/4 piece. Could be a waltz, prelude, mazurka (?? - not sure here) or an “ingredient” for a ballad. It could be just the first page of a longer composition. We may never know (given if it indeed is Chopin). I can point to several questionable passages in this short piece, some details that aren’t 100 percent Chopin though…But once again : it may be Chopin, but unrefined, not polished.

Great analyse, thank you! I lack your expert knowledge, but l know Chopin's music extremely well by heart, being a lover for over 30 years. I heard his voice in this piece instantly. If this should prove a forgery, the impostor must be equally amazing, and I want to know him/her. The introduction reminded me immediately of Chopin's Prelude op.28/14, the whole thing has a sort of slightly demonic, ominous atmosphere (like waltzing with the devil). And yet so classy. I don't know any other composer of Chopin's era who could create such marvellous, ambivalent, even disturbing moods with such grace and elegance. (Maybe some would point out Wagner, but I disagree, Wagner was daring and very expressive in his own right, but I wouldn't describe his music as elegant or graceful!)

Great analysis, which shows how carefully and expertly this piece is constructed, despite its brevity. I'm 100% sure this is authentic Chopin: that "searching" phrase at the beginning, that outburst that prolongs the "search" by delaying the resolution but eventually brings it home, the fragments of chromatic scale that recall each other... As others have already pointed out, I think it is stylistically more akin to a mazurka than to a waltz.

Thanks so much for this! Quite an extraordinary little piece! Very worthwhile discovery. When it comes to Mozart, I agree about the little serenade...but it is worth listening to, I think...especially the second movement and the catchy little finale. Of Mozart's early stuff, there are some pretty precocious works in my opinion: especially vocal efforts like the opera Mitridate, and the oratorio La Betulia liberata, with gripping minor key choruses and the lead given, unusually, to a contralto! I guess the composer's dramatic gift may have developed before his full compositional maturity? Supposedly he liked Betulia so much that it was performed again with some newly composed choruses (now lost!) in Vienna in 1784. Now THOSE I would like to see turn up in somebody's library!

As always a mistery why an artist has an idea and then decides to not further elaborate. This really screams for a continuation. It's just the first phrase. So unmistakingly Chopin that you would want to go back in time, take the man by the shoulders and shake him and scream: DO MORE! Especially because as opposed to that small Mozart Serenade, its a piece he sketched when he as fully matured as a composer, whereas the Mozart is just... youthful Mozart and therefore nothing special. Just like you said. As with Schubert, when he abandoned an idea and left us with another of his fragments.

Well… as a pianist/composer myself I played tons of Chopin in my life - enough to “filter out” certain ways of Chopin’s thinking process, certain hand and fingers positions etc. This short “waltz” if this is indeed authentic Chopin’s manuscript, shows few things that show certain inconsistencies when it comes down to his stylistics as a composer/improviser. This could have been either an attempt for a full composition that never got continued (eventually abandoned and forgotten by the composer) or a short gift scribbled quickly without refining so characteristic to Chopin. There’s another possibility : the following pages have either been lost or still wait to be discovered somewhere… After playing through the sheet music from this video (stopping the screen) looking throughout the 1-page manuscript photo online, I am almost positive it is Chopin, but either not-refined (Chopin was extremely detailed with virtually everything he has ever written) or refinement and development (especially the left hand) happens in continuation. Hopefully we’ll find it one day 😊
