About

Everything that Chopin wrote included the piano; his songs, his chamber music and the six works in this set that feature the orchestra, all were written with the piano as the main protagonist. This is hardly surprising when one considers that Chopin was, perhaps, the greatest of all the 19th-century piano virtuosi.
Rather like Beethoven's first two piano concertos Chopin's First was actually the second to be composed. The concertos date from very early in the composer's career, when he was around the age of 20 and before he left Poland for Paris.
