Fantaisie_in_F_minor_(Chopin)
The Fantaisie in F minor, Op. 49, by Frédéric Chopin is a single-movement work for the piano, composed in 1841, when he was 31 years old.[1] From Chopin's letters it is known that he used the name "fantasy" to show some sort of freedom from rules and give a Romantic expression.[1] Frédéric Chopin continued the tradition of a self-contained movement in his Fantaisie.[2] This Fantaisie is one of Chopin's longest pieces, and is considered one of his greatest works.[3]
The autograph manuscript of the work is preserved in the National Library of Poland.
