By Frederic Chopin. By Frederic Chopin. Arranged by Joel William Scianna. This edition: pdf, streaming. Classical, Historic. 8 pages. Joel William Music #1111985. Published by Joel William Music (A0.1539215).t isn't often that one of the "Greats" drops a new hit, but the classical music scene was taken by surprise when a composition attributed to the virtuosic Frédéric Chopin was discovered recently in New York. This Waltz in A Minor (or Valse as it is simply titled, being “Waltz” in French) is both brief and vigorous, showcasing many musical devices that Chopin became known for. Experts are mixed about whether the short songlet was meant as a gift to a friend, was an idea intended to become a longer work, or was in fact written by a student of Chopin. This is your opportunity to take a wonderful melody, simultaneously old and new, into your own hands and share in this slice of history.
This arrangement offers a great opportunity for a quartet to hone in their tempo and flexibility, as the group follows the leading melody (in Tenor Sax, then Alto and Soprano) through multiple accelerandos and ritardandos.
