Study Edition - Chopin Fantasie Impromptu in C-sharp Minor

Chopin’s Fantasie-Impromptu (Op. Posth. 66) is one of the most popular works in the piano repertoire and many pianists attempt it before they are ready for the challenges it poses.


This new study edition is an extension to our original series of six videos providing a walk-through of the work and it’s various technical challenges. In addition to these original videos, the edition features:

  • Urtext and annotated versions of the score with 34 detailed annotations covering everything from interpretation, hand distribution, technical exercises, ornaments, practice tips, fingering and pedalling
  • Three practice worksheets which offer a step-by-step approach to tackling specific challenges within the work, including the polyrhythms
  • Fifteen demonstration videos linking to annotations and worksheets via QR codes (if using a print copy) or clickable links (if viewing digitally)

The following is an example of one of the annotations illustrating how to approach the right hand patterns in bar 12 using forearm rotations and inward / outward movements when playing on the black or white keys:
