Autograph manuscript of Ballade 1 op. 23 by Fryderyk Chopin.

I do not have the book titled Presto con fuoco by Roberto Cotroneo (on Chopin), which should have a part of this manuscript on the cover.

It is certainly not news... published in the year 1995. I haven't read it, but the reviews of the book are conflicting. The only solution will be to buy it and read it

P.s. The cost seems excessive to me, on Amazon at € 63.86

Is there anyone who happens to have the entire original manuscript?

I don't know if there might be anything useful on Petrucci but, Petrucci aside, here are 3 interesting sites dedicated to Chopin

Thank you, unfortunately I don't seem to see the manuscript... Only first editions.

Simone, perhaps you can hear the Frederic Chopin Museum of Warsaw
