Please review the guidelines for classical music articles. Many statements in this article reflect original research and subjective interpretation. For now, I will not delete them.

[edit] Programmatic description of Ballade

From everything that I've read about Chopin, he was strongly opposed to programmatic music. Titles such as the "revolutionary etude" and the notion that his first Scherzo symbolize the turbulence that he was feeling as his homeland was at war are all speculative and, while perhaps helpful in appreciating the music, should not be given as fact.

Most of these single composition articles are relatively old and haven't been paid much attention to. Efforts are being made to revitalize some pages, such as the Chopin études. If you come across anything like that, please change it. ALTON .ıl 00:25, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
