Each of the five pieces from this post in their original forms. Just in case you thought that perhaps Chopin was the Thelonious Monk of the mid-1800s. And before anybody says anything, yes, lots of instruments play Monti’s version of a Czardas and most of them with the piano, but a Czardas (Csárdás) is really a gypsy violin thing and I like it that way.
