Chopin: Piano Concerto No. 1

Album by Fryderyk Chopin & Royal Philharmonic Orchestra & Paul Freeman & David Syme

Piano Concerto No. 1 in E minor, Op. 11 is a piano concerto by Fryderyk Chopin, composed in 1830. The work combines virtuosic piano writing and Romantic lyricism with orchestral accompaniment in a classical three-movement concerto structure, and it is one of Chopin's earliest large-scale works that helped establish his reputation as a pianist-composer in the early Romantic era.
