Chopin's Polish Ballade
Op. 38 as Narrative of National Martyrdom
J
Jonathan D. BellmanChopin's Polish Ballade examines the Second Ballade, Op. 38, and how that work gave voice to the Polish cultural preoccupations of the 1830s, using musical conventions from French opera and amateur piano music. This approach provides answers to several persistent questions about the work's form, programmatic content, and poetic inspiration.
