Chopin, Frédéric

What would the piano playing world do without the music of Frederic Chopin?

The concluding cadenza, that twirling line, reads plainly "Frederic Chopin."

That such a youth as Frederic Chopin should seek in music a surcease from his world-sorrow is very natural.

And thus does that modest, mild and gentle revolutionist Frederic Chopin live again in minds made better.

It was as if a Frederic Chopin sat before the keys, instead of that small Circe.
