Album insights
Celebrating his 75th birthday on January 5, 2017, the Italian musician Maurizio Pollini reflects on a world-renowned career spanning over half a century. Starting this jubilant year, Pollini unveils his newest Chopin album, "Chopin – Late Works." Highlighting Chopin's smooth flowing Barcarole, this album also introduces 6 Mazurkas and 3 Waltzes never before performed by Pollini. Notably, the collection features the lyrical posthumous Mazurka in F-sharp minor and the crescendoing Polonaise-Fantaisie in A-flat major, concluding with two intimate Nocturnes.
