CHOPIN, THE FABULOUS PIANIST

Chopin was a polish pianist and composer. He was born in 1810 and he died in 1849. He was an excellent composer of Romanticism. Chopin created a very poetic style of music and very difficult to interpret. He was a prodigy since the age of 6. We can’t compare him with Liszt since they are too different regarding their styles of composition. Wojciech Zywny was his first teacher who taught him a technical and theoretical base to start a musical career at her age, performing loads of concerts in Viena. Beethoven, Mozart and to a lesser extent, Bach, had a great influence on the compositions of him. Chopin admired them a great deal for their compositions. His songs are stunning and many composers can’t get that stunning effect in their compositions. He suffered from tuberculosis and hence he died at the age of 39. Now he is considered to be the best composer of Romanticism and I personally love his music.
