Chopin etude op 25 no 1 Aeolian Harp / The Shepherd Boy

Étude Op. 25, No. 1 in A-flat major is a solo piano work composed by Frédéric Chopin in 1836, and published in 1837. The work consists entirely of rapid arpeggios and harmonic modulations based on A-flat major. By Anastasia Huppmann Robert Schumann praised etude op 25 no 1 in a dissertation on the Études; calling it “a poem rather than a study“, he coined for it the alternate name “Aeolian Harp“. It is also sometimes known as “The Shepherd Boy,“ following an unsupported tale by Kleczyński that Chopin advised a pupil to picture a shepherd boy taking refuge in a grotto to avoid a storm playing the melody on his flute.
