Pronunciation Key , composer for the piano, b. near Warsaw, of French and Polish parentage. His lyrical, often melancholy, compositions brought romantic piano music to unprecedented expressive heights. A prodigy as a pianist and composer, he began performing at aristocratic salons in Warsaw, and in 1826 he started full-time studies at the Warsaw Conservatory. After concert appearances in Vienna and Munich, he settled in Paris, where he gave his first concert in 1831. Although he remained devoted to Polish culture and artists, he never returned to his homeland. In Paris he became closely associated with the principal composers, artists, and literary figures of his time. He was a virtuoso interpreter of his own works, but his dislike of playing in public made him prefer teaching and composing to the concert stage. In 1836, Liszt introduced Chopin to Mme Dudevant, better known by her pen name George

klassiekemuziekgids net Frédéric Chopin Frédéric François (Pools: Fryderyk Franciszek) Zelazowa Wola, bij Warschau, 1810 – Parijs 1849 Pools componist en pianist Schreef vrijwel uitsluitend pianomuziek, waarin elegante, expressieve melodieën. Experimentele harmonieën en vrije vormen worden gecombineerd met een briljante pianotechniek. Zijn werk vormt het hoogtepunt van de romantische pianomuziek en is excellent voor het instrument geschreven. Het vormt een persoonlijke synthese van Pools-traditionele en West-Europese klassieke elementen. Aanvankelijk trad hij op als concertpianist. Later echter trok hij zich steeds meer uit de openbaarheid terug en concentreerde hij zich op het lesgeven. Chopin was de zoon van een Franse vader en een Poolse moeder. Hij ontving zijn eerste muzikale vorming van de Bohemer Zywny, die hem in aanraking bracht met de muziek van Bach J.Haydn en W.A. Mozart , en van Elsner, directeur van het conservatorium te Warschau. Als pianist was Chopin, die graag improviseerde, grotendeels autodidact. Reeds op jeugdige leeftijd trad hij in de salons van Warschau op en in 1829 maakte hij een succesvol debuut in Wenen met een improvisatie over een Pools volkslied, wat hem tot een nationaal componist stempelde.

Alfred Cortot Average Customer Rating: 5.0 out of 5 Spotlight customer reviews Customer Rating: Summary: Not hearing Cortot, you haven't really heard Chopin yet! Comment: Well, that may well be the case. Cortot had won open admiration of Schiff, Cziffra, Michelangeli, Arrau, Solti... just to name a few. His Chopin is so incisive, with myriad of hues from coming from his subtle touch. And the poignancy is such that it is pure poetic ecstasy all through. Needless to say, playing with this kind of concentration any artist has to take risk and the result is sheer beauty, beauty coming with a price: "the wrong notes". But at a time when spontaneity and improvisation was given so much weight, the price in view of the well captured beauty is very small. Some say Cortot (or even Rachmaninov) are dated. Somethings do change, but in art and in music, there are even more that will remain unchanged. Taste in music doesn't really change that much. And Cortot and Rachmaninov are right at the peak of modern pianism. They were ahead of their time in both music and pianism, and are still very much ahead ours in the sense that they still stand as our (Horowitz included) goal one way or other. I suggest what have really changed instead are the way younger pianists are trained and brought up nowadays, leaving few of them, if at all, in a position to carry on with the torch. And as Alfred Brendel said, the rich polyphonic pianistic tradition is really sadly lost. Coming back to this album, the real obstacle rather is the archive sound of their legacy, however rich they may be. But once this door is unlocked, viewers will be rewarded with a whole world of really wonderful music, of demonic and angelic pianism which would virtually leave Ashkenazy (or even Richter) way behind...
