Chopin's first Impromptu, Op. 29, published in 1837. Flowing without a break, this swift impromptu passes connected triplets between both hands around a broader middle section. In the novel Trilby by George du Maurier, the hypnotized heroine sings this impromptu without words to close her concerts.
