FRYDERIC CHOPIN Frederic François Chopin is a Polish composer and virtuoso pianist, teacher. Author of numerous works for piano. The largest representative of Polish musical art. He interpreted many genres in a new way: he revived the prelude on a romantic basis, created a piano ballad, made dances more poetic - mazurka, polonaise, waltz.
Biography of Chopin Chopin, Fryderyk (1810-1849), Poland Chopin was born on March 1, 1810 near Warsaw. First he studied at the Music Lyceum, and then at the Main School of Music. Chopin's talent as a performer and composer manifested itself very early. At the age of 7, Chopin's first work (Polonaise in G minor for piano) was published, and at the age of 8, Fryderyk was already playing on stage as a pianist. From the age of 13, Chopin traveled a lot with performances throughout Poland, and he also visited Berlin and Vienna.
Interesting facts from the life of Chopin This boy has gone crazy! Little Chopin, when sitting down at the piano, would certainly extinguish the candles and play in complete darkness. He became very fond of certain chords that his childhood fingers could not yet play. In order to stretch his fingers, the boy came up with a special device that caused quite severe pain. Despite this, the young pianist wore it constantly, not taking it off even at night. Sometimes little Chopin would jump up at night and play a few chords on the piano. The servants were completely convinced that the poor boy had gone mad. At the age of ten, Chopin composed a march dedicated to the Grand Duke Constantine, which was published, although without the name of the author, and was even performed several times by a military orchestra.
who composed the dog's waltz George Sand had a dog with whom she loved to play. Once, while fiddling with a dog, George Sand said: “If I had talent, I would certainly compose some work in honor of this dog.” The desire of the beloved is the law. And Chopin composed a wonderful waltz (opus No. 64), which Chopin’s friends and students, knowing to whom the waltz was dedicated, called it: “Waltz of the Little Dog.”

From the mid-40s. New trends appeared in his work: calm contemplation, bright harmony. Musical language more complex. More polyphonic techniques appear. Multi-layered melody. Harmony is chromatic. This is where the path to musical empressionism begins (Debussy and others). This is embodied in his “Lullaby”. In 1848, Chopin went on tour to London. There he gave lessons and performed a little in salons. The last time I performed was at the Polish ball.

Mazurkas For Chopin, mazurkas are a symbol of the Motherland. These are small piano miniatures, in which Chopin came into closest contact with Polish folklore, with the sound folk ensemble. His mazurkas can be divided into village mazurkas (No. 3, E-dur), ballroom or Schlissetskie (No. 5) and lyrical mazurkas.

Polonaises In the polonaises, Chopin recreates the heroic spirit of Poland's past.

They also contain graphic moments reminiscent of battle scenes. Almost all polonaises are written in complex 3-part forms.

Preludes The genre attracted Chopin for its improvisation and the possibility of direct expression. In Chopin's preludes one can find not only signs of different genres, but also a combination of different genres. They, like Bach's preludes and fugues, are like an encyclopedia of genres of that time. Each prelude is written in its own key. They are arranged on a circle of fourths.
