Turn It Up

The guiding principle in editing the scores of Chopin's works for piano and orchestra has been to keep exactly to the original music text, and at the same time to adapt it to contemporary performing practice. The main source in establishing, the music text of the orchestra parts in particular works has been the 1880 edition of Breitkopf & Hartel in Leipzig (part. B. 427 and 442, and C.XII. 1 and 3 - 5 of 1880).

'Chopin had the fortunate idea of playing the Adagio [Romance. Larghetto] from his last Concerto. Placed between two orchestral compositions of a turbulent style, this enchanting work, in which irresistible charm is combined with most profound religious thought, submerged the listeners in a specific joy - serene and ecstatic - to which we have not become accustomed in a similar situation. All this differs greatly from the endless adagios, which usually fill the middle movement of a piano concerto; in this case, there is so much simplicity used with such freshness of imagination, that when the last note was heard, in the manner of a pearl cast into a golden vase, the audience, immersed in contemplation, continued to listen, and for a few moments restrained itself from applauding. In the same way, while observing the harmonious descent of crepusculat dimness at eventide, w remain motionless in the darkness, with our eyes still focused on that point of the horizon where the light has just faded".
Hector Berlioz, "Le Rénovateur", 3 (IV), 5 January 1835.
