Album by Fryderyk Chopin & Maurizio Pollini
12 Etudes Op. 25 / Piano Sonata No. 2 / Berceuse is a collection of solo piano works by Frédéric Chopin, composed and published between 1837 and 1844. These pieces range from technically demanding etudes to a compact, dramatic sonata and a gentle cradle-piece, exemplifying Romantic-era piano writing and representing important works in Chopin's mature contribution to 19th-century piano repertoire.
