Fantasia, Berceuse, Barcarolle, Complete Works XI, for Piano

Fryderyk Chopin: Obras completas para piano, vol. XI: Fantasía, nana, barcarola.

Berceuse in D flat major is an extremely subtle and refined work, which is expressed through circular arabesque melody, transformation of the ornamental resources in terms of colour and consistency of variation technique used in the ostinato variation. Barcarolle in F sharp major belongs to the tradition of Italian gondoliers, with its inherent 12/8 time signature and the mannerism of ornamental melody in thirds. The reprise structure combines the techniques of variation, ostinato
