The 19 waltzes comprising this volume are among Chopin's most popular compositions. Composed over a period of 20 years (from 1827-1847), only eight waltzes were published during Chopin's lifetime. Many of the others were written as gifts for women with whom he was acquainted. This practical performing edition is clearly spaced for ease in reading and contains a thematic index.
This title has selections that range in difficulty from SMP Level 7-10.

I have written a review just now for an edition of the Schirmer's Ballades, but like I said there, I am a 14 year old Freshman who has been playing the piano for 11 years (and a teacher now). In my opinion, the Waltzes shouldn't be labeled as level 10, but maybe level 6-9? Like I said before, I've been playing for 11 years, so they are easier works for me. I still love this edition, and everything is really easy to read. I also would have liked it to be spiral-bound, but it really doesn't matter all that much because I could always photocopy them and use them for personal use. I really like the B Minor and C# Minor Waltzes though because they were my first Waltzes, and I also really like the CD.
