Miscellaneous compositions (Chopin)
Frédéric Chopin's output mostly consists of pieces for solo piano. There are also the two piano concertos, four other works for piano and orchestra, and a small amount of chamber music. However, Chopin also produced a number of other compositions, mostly for solo piano, but some for other forces.  Some of these are well-known, such as the Barcarolle in F♯, the Fantaisie in F minor, the Berceuse in D♭, and some of the 19 Polish songs.  Most of the other lesser-known works were published only after his death, contrary to his express wishes that all his unpublished manuscripts should be burned.

While often disregarded in the concert repertoire (particularly the posthumously published works), these miscellaneous works are nevertheless part of his oeuvre and most have been recorded, in some cases numerous times.

Fantaisie in F minor (Chopin)
The Fantaisie in F minor, Op. 49, by Frédéric Chopin is a single-movement work for the piano, composed in 1841, when he was 31 years old. From Chopin's letters it is known that he used the name "fantasy" to show some sort of freedom from rules and give a Romantic expression. Frédéric Chopin continued the tradition of a self-contained movement in his Fantaisie. This Fantaisie is one of Chopin's longest pieces, and is considered one of his greatest works.

The autograph manuscript of the work is preserved in the National Library of Poland.
