Excerpt from Life of Chopin However great may be the popularity of the compositions of a writer broken down by suffering long prior to the day when death seized him, it cannot be doubted that his posterity will hold his works in far higher esteem than did his contempor aries. Those who shall in future write the history of music will assuredly give a very exalted rank to one who distinguished himself in his art by so rare a genius for melody, and by such wondrous and graceful expansion Of the resources of harmony; and his triumphs will be far more appreciated than those of many others who covered a larger space, though the works Of the latter may be over and over again played by the full orchestra and over and over again sung by crowds Of prime donne.

Life of Chopin is classical music biography that represents the definitive account of the life of the great Polish pianist/composer, Frederic Chopin. The story is told by his friend and colleague, the legendary Hungarian pianist, Franz Liszt-the ideal man to relate the brief, but brilliant life of Chopin. Liszt's proximity to the subject and insightful accounts make this Chopin biography resonate as few can. Frederic Francois Chopin (1 March 1810 - 17 October 1849) was a Polish composer and virtuoso pianist of the Romantic era who wrote primarily for solo piano. He has maintained worldwide renown as a leading musician of his era, one whose "poetic genius was based on a professional technique that was without equal in his generation." Chopin was born Fryderyk Franciszek Chopin[n 1] in what was then the Duchy of Warsaw and grew up in Warsaw, which in 1815 became part of Congress Poland. A child prodigy, he completed his musical education and composed his earlier works in Warsaw before leaving Poland at the age of 20, less than a month before the outbreak of the November 1830 Uprising. At 21, he settled in Paris. Thereafter--in the last 18 years of his life--he gave only 30 public performances, preferring the more intimate atmosphere of the salon. He supported himself by selling his compositions and by giving piano lessons, for which he was in high demand. Chopin formed a friendship with Franz Liszt and was admired by many of his other musical contemporaries (including Robert Schumann). In 1835, Chopin obtained French citizenship. After a failed engagement to Maria Wodzirska from 1836 to 1837, he maintained an often troubled relationship with the French writer Amantine Dupin (known by her pen name, George Sand). A brief and unhappy visit to Majorca with Sand in 1838-39 would prove one of his most productive periods of composition. In his final years, he was supported financially by his admirer Jane Stirling, who also arranged for him to visit Scotland in 1848. For most of his life, Chopin was in poor health. He died in Paris in 1849 at the age of 39, probably of tuberculosis. All of Chopin's compositions include the piano. Most are for solo piano, though he also wrote two piano concertos, a few chamber pieces, and some 19 songs set to Polish lyrics

Excerpt from Polonaise: The Life of Chopin When I suggested the example of Liszt to a soul stricken but still capable of enthusiasm, I thought also of offering him this story of Chopin. Not that this latter should serve to discount whatever slight exuberance there might be in the former. On the contrary: they complement and complete each other and show the two fold visage, the one concave and the other convex, of this symbolic being that we call the artist. Or, the sensitive man, the cognizant. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Chopin: The Man and His Music Gustave flaubert, pessimist and master of cadenced lyric prose, urged young writers to lead ascetic lives that in their art they might be violent. Chopin's violence was psychic, a travailing and groaning of the spirit; the bright roughness of adventure was missing from his quotidian existence. The tragedy was within. One recalls Maurice Maeterlinck: Whereas most of our life is passed far from blood, cries and swords, and the tears of men have become silent, invisible and almost spiritual. Chopin went from Poland to France from Warsaw to Paris - where, finally, he was borne to his grave in Pere la Chaise. He lived, loved and died; and not for him were the perils, prizes and fascinations of a hero's career. He fought his battles within the walls of his soul - we may note and enjoy them in his music. His out ward state was not niggardly of incident. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Frederick Chopin, Vol. 1 of 2: As a Man and Musician My researches had for their object the whole life of chopin, and his historical, political, artistical, social, and personal sur roundings, but they were chiefly directed to theleast known and most interesting period of his career - his life in France, and his visits to Germany and Great Britain. My chief sources of information are divisible into two classes - newspapers, magazines, pamphlets, correspondences, and books; and conversations I held with, and letters I received from, Chopin's pupils, friends, and acquaintances. Of his pupils, my warmest thanks are due to Madame Dubois (ne'e Camille o'meara), Madame Rubio (ne'e Vera de Kologrivof), Mdlle. Gavard, Madame Streicher (ne'e Friederike Muller), Adolph Gutmann, M. Georges Mathias, Brinley Richards, and Lind say Sloper; of friends and acquaintances, to Liszt, Ferdinand Hiller, F ranchomme, Charles Valentin Alkan, Stephen Heller.

Excerpt from F. Chopin Les formes multiples de l'art n'étant que des ih cantations diverses, destinées à évoquer les senti ments et les passions, pour les rendre sensibles, tan gibles en quelque sorte, et en communiquer les frémissements, le génie se manifeste par l'invention de formes nouvelles adaptées parfois à des senti ments qui n'ont point encore surgi dans le cercle enchanté. Peut - ou espérer que dans ces arts où la sensation est liée à l'émotion sans l'intermédiaire de la pensée et de la réflexion, la seule introduction de formes et de modes inusités ne soit déjà un obstacle àla compréhension immédiate d'une oeuvre?... La surprise et mème la fatigue, occasionnées par l'etran gete des impressions inconnues qu'elle ré veille, ne la font-elles pas paraître au grand nombre comme écrite dans une langue qu'on ignore, et qui, par cela mème, semble d'abord barbare?. La seule peine d'y habi tuer l'oreille suffit pour en rebuter beaucoup, qui refusent opiniâtrément de l'étudier avec suite. Ce sont en premier lieu les organisations les plus vives et les plus jeunes. Qui le moins enchaînées par cetattrait de l'habitude, respectable mème en ceux chez qui il est invincible, se prennent de curiosité, puis de passion pour l'idiome nouveau; c'est par elles qu'il pénètre et gagne les régions récalcitrantes du public, et que celui - ci finit par en saisir le sens, la portée, la construction, et par rendre justice aux qualités ou aux richesses qu'il peut renfermer. Pour ces raisons, les musiciens qui ne s'asheignent pas aux routines conventionnelles ont besoin plus que d'autres artistes de l'aide du temps. Ils ne peuvent mème espérer que la mort apporte à leurs travaux cette plus - cab instantanée qu'elle donne à ceux des peintres, et aucun d'eux ne pourrait renouveler au profit de ses manuscrits le subterfuge d'un des grands maîtres flamands, qui voulut de son vivant exploiter sa gloire future, en chargeant sa femme de répandre le bruit de son décès, pour faire ren chérir les toiles dont il avait eu soin de garnir son atelier.
