Pwm Ballades: Chopin National Edition Volume I

slightly disappointed with the quality of the music produced and even more disappointed since it’s the edition that the chopin institute recommend themselves to use from!! the top of some pages of some were still stuck together and some looked like they were ripped off from the fuzzy rip you usually see on ripped paper, or badly cut off. the back page arrived creased and the book just look used despite no pen/pencil markings in it. moving away from its physical imperfections, as a whole the quality of the paper feels too thin; like schrimer’s copies and like printer paper and feels really fragile. the way the text and music is formatted is not a very pleasing sight to the eye and it feels rather complicated to read which it shouldn’t feel. additionally the form of notation used and some edits of the actual notes on the paper is confusing and a very odd way of laying it out, as a pianist i wouldn’t be able to read it with fluidity at a first glance. all in all, i would rather spend a bit more for henle editions instead.

print quality is nice and clear. The Performance Commentary booklet is very helpful as well.

Excellent edition of Chopin’s Ballades delivered in very good order. Highly recommended.

Très bonne édition.
