Frédéric Chopin's Fantaisie-Impromptu in C-sharp minor, Op. posth. 66, is a solo piano composition. It was composed in 1834 and published posthumously in 1855 although he had instructed that none of his unpublished manuscripts should be published. Despite negative comments, the Fantaisie-Impromptu is one of Chopin's most frequently performed and popular compositions.
The Fantaisie Impromtpu was written in 1834 as were the Four Mazurkas (Op. 17), and the Grande valse brillante in E-flat major (Op. 18), but unlike these other works, Chopin never published the Fantaisie-Impromptu. Instead, Julian Fontana published it posthumously, along with other waltzes Opp. 69 and 70. It is unknown why Chopin did not publish the Fantaisie-Impromptu. James Huneker, trying to guess why Chopin did not publish the Fantaisie-Impromptu, calls parts of it "mawkish" and "without nobility" Ernst Oster writes that a technical exploration would show why Chopin did not publish the work, and that exploration shows that the Fantaisie-Impromptu and Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata ("Quasi una fantasia") are related.
