Please review the guidelines for classical music articles. Many statements in this article reflect original research and subjective interpretation. For now, I will not delete them. Please find an appropriate source. In one week, if the article is not referenced, I will add "citation needed" tags. Good article; needs sources. --Birdman1 talk/contribs 13:08, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Programmatic description of Ballade

[edit]

From everything that I've read about Chopin, he was strongly opposed to programmatic music. Titles such as the "revolutionary etude" and the notion that his first Scherzo symbolize the turbulence that he was feeling as his homeland was at war are all speculative and, while perhaps helpful in appreciating the music, should not be given as fact.

Most of these single composition articles are relatively old and haven't been paid much attention to. Efforts are being made to revitalize some pages, such as the Chopin études. If you come across anything like that, please change it. ALTON .ıl 00:25, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well let's remove it unless till some evidence/citation emerges in its support (exceedingly unlikely)

Merge 4 Ballades into one page

[edit]

I've posted this on the talk pages of the other three ballades as well. Since information on the four ballades is scarce, at best, there is hardly enough to create one article for each. I think it might be better for them to be all consolidated into one article, which would be much more substantial.

I seem to be the first to respond to this. I've replied at Talk:Ballade No. 4 (Chopin), and it may be best to confine the discussion to that page, otherwise it will become unmanageable. -- JackofOz (talk) 22:19, 30 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Split

[edit]

The four ballades were once again split on December 17, 2020 after discussion here. intforce (talk) 14:23, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
