Fantaisie in F minor, Op. 49 (1841)
A very good article on Fantasy in F minor
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. 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. Frédéric Chopin continued the tradition of a self-contained
movement in his Fantaisie. This Fantaisie is one of Chopin's longest pieces, and is con-
sidered one of his greatest works.
