Chopin: Largo BI 109

Lisztonian: Classical Piano Music - A podcast by lisztonian.com

This brief piece, composed by Frederic Chopin, has a majestic beauty. The melody is reminiscent of one of his many Nocturnes, while the accompanying harmonies are almost hymnal - even concluding with a fifth-to-dominant cadence that is such a common ending in church service music (although this piece is more subtle than a typical hymn).

This recording was another from the collection, Classical Music for the Church Service: Volume 2 (published by Alfred - my favorite sheet music publisher). The recording was performed at my home on my studio upright. If you enjoy this recording, please consider making a donation towards the purchase of a new piano.
