Waltz Op. posth.70 No.2

Frédéric Chopin

What's this piece like?
The Waltzes op. posth. 69 & 70, published only after Chopin’s death, are being offered in two versions: first, in a "version according to the autograph", followed by a "version according to Fontana" (Chopin's friend and copyist). The recording of this piece is the "autograph version", while the score is the "Fontana version", hence the difference.
Who's this piece for?
This is a great piece for intermediate level pianists with a solid foundation and strong technique.
