late intermediate

Écossaise Op. posth.72 No.2

Frédéric Chopin

What's this piece like?
Chopin's Three Écossaises are not very well known but excellent pieces for those starting to learn his music and have already played some of the easier Nocturnes and Mazurkas. The second one in the set will make your right-hand stretch to play the arpeggios and it will help you develop flexibility of the wrist and fingers.
Who's this piece for?
This is a great piece for intermediate level pianists with a solid foundation and strong technique.
