Chopin published his Scherzi nos. 1 3 at more-or-less regular intervals in 1835 1837 and 1840 almost as if he’d planned them in advance. He published his fourth and final work in this genre after a further three years in1843. When compared with its predecessors which were largely bleak in mood this Scherzo no. 4 is surprisingly cheerful. With its sparkling runs and its chains of chords like dappled brush strokes this work seems to summon upthe fairy-like spirit of Mendelssohn’s scherzi. In editorial terms however it is problematical. Three parallel first editions were published in Germany France and England and the many variants between them have to beinvestigated one at a time to determine their authenticity. This is a task that has been solved meticulously in this revised stand-alone Urtext edition which explains the transmission of this work in an exemplary transparentmanner for today’s pianists.
