Sea voyage with pigs

"Fréderic Chopin and his lover, George Sand, returned from their stay in Majorca, driven home by bad weather and the composer's worsening health, in a ship that was carrying pigs in tis cargo. Hence the title of this suite of poems, one for each of the 24 Preludes that Chopin completed on the island in 1839. Each copy is bound up with a compact disc of the Preludes, performed by William Aide himself"--Jacket.
