Moreover, the theme of the first movement could very well have influenced Schubert when he composed his Impromptu D935 n.2 and in the second movement of his sonata in C minor. The funeral march is also a true piece of art, the tempo Czerny gives suites perfectly the movement of the slow march (maybe that could also be applied to Chopin's one?). Here you find also the anticipation of the second movement in the 3rd symphony... you will see the four hands version very soon on this channel ;). Enjoy this beauty and see you on Monday in the chat!
