Piano Concerto No. 2 / Variations on Mozart's "Là ci darem la mano"

This collection presents orchestral works by Frédéric Chopin composed between 1827 and 1830. The pieces combine virtuosic solo piano writing with classical orchestral textures, exemplifying early Romantic emphasis on lyrical melody and pianistic colour and marking Chopin's formative contributions to concerto and variation forms before his later concentration on solo piano repertoire.
