The difficulty rating system that Piano Street uses enables me to search by difficulty level for pieces at my students' various playing levels. I can browse the collection for pieces I want to play and/or have my students play. "Piano Street has been a wonderful tool to me as both a pianist and a piano teacher. To find the scores locally would have been inpossible as it was a smaller town, the nearest music store 45 minutes away."

This is indeed a fascinating piece, demanding brilliance, lyricism as well as a keen sense of dramatic structure. It is almost as if the original "questioning" voice were returning to speak at a greater length, which it does with increasing confidence, making more and more emphatic statements before leading back to the return of the opening section and on to the magnificent coda. In the B section, things become quieter and more contemplative. This exchange happens numerous times before we get to the vibrant flowing melody that is repeated with variation throughout the piece. The mysterious opening motif, so short and quiet that it's almost inaudible, is followed by a very loud, majestic statement. Chopin himself used the piece in his teaching and admonished his pupils to play the first measures in a manner that evoked the image of a mortuary. 2 in B-flat minor is especially notable for its sotto voce opening that seems to represent a kind of question and answer.

In Paris, he made a comfortable living as a composer and piano teacher, while giving few public performances. In November 1830, at the age of 20, Chopin went abroad following the suppression of the Polish November Uprising of 1830–31, he became one of many expatriates of the Polish "Great Emigration." He was born in the village of Żelazowa Wola, in the Duchy of Warsaw, to a Polish mother and French-expatriate father, and in his early life was regarded as a child-prodigy pianist. He is widely regarded as the greatest Polish composer, and ranks as one of music's greatest tone poets.
