I didn't play any etudes at that time, so I don't know firsthand about flaws/inadequacies in the fingering suggestions that people talk about in their reviews of the book. I see your point about the difficulty of having the book remain open. The price on the dover is very attractive but I owned that book once (I donated it). So this is almost three times the price of the dover. The preludes (Paderewsky) is another $10. The Paderewski edition costs $17.95 and is without the preludes. I didn't really ask her why she recommended the Mikuli because I trusted she would have her reasons. I did read that thread but I didn't see information specific to the etudes. If people think the Paderewsky one is better, I can get that and a separate book for the preludes (also the Paderewsky edition?).
What's your experience with this particular dover publication? However, I don't want to buy the book only because its cheap.
The few reviews I've seen for the Paderewsky have been good: The dover publication (Mikuli edition) contains the preludes also and is very cheap. The musical examples use in thids chapte arr e taken from Paderewski's edition of the. University of Wollongong Thesis Collection University. This best edition for Chopin is known for. Jump to Paderewski Edition - This book contains the 24 etudes from Op. Most people say that the fingering suggestions are bad: I don't know what to think of these reviews. The online reviews for the Mikuli are bad. She suggested two editions: Mikuli and Paderewsky. The cover is laminated, the paper is yellowish, but the print is small.My teacher asked me to get the Chopin etudes (and preludes).
They currently have the Preludes published. Peter's Editions are in the process of publishing Urtext editions of his works. Henle's cover's paper wears very easily and the binding gets the most wear.Īlternative editions of Chopin's works can be found. Price of Paderewski is very inexpensive compared to Henle which is 3 or 4 times as much.ĭurabilty of the Paderewski may be better than Henle, which falls apart after extensive use. But Henle is printed on yellowish paper which is easy on the eyes and the newly printed Paderewski is on white paper which is not entirely opaque, either. nocturnes including the C-sharp minor.įrom a readabilty POV, I prefer the Paderewski to Henle - Henle's noteheads are huge black dots that are difficult to read (and this is all their editions).
For example, Paderewski Chopin nocturnes are missing some Op.post. Henle would also be more up to date and include all pieces for a certain genre.
