Chopin and His World
A new look at the life, times, and music of Polish composer and piano virtuoso Fryderyk Chopin Fryderyk Chopin (1810–49), although the most beloved of piano composers, remains a contradictory figure, an artist of virtually universal appeal who preferred the company of only a few sympathetic friends and listeners.

Frederic Chopin
After Chopin died in Paris in his fortieth year, on October 17, 1849, Liszt, who had been his close friend, was moved to create a literary monument to his great Polish contemporary. Early in 1852 a book appeared in the French capital, with the simple title "F. Chopin" by the author "F. Liszt." In the hundred-odd years since, the biographical literature on Chopin has grown in proportion to his posthumous fame; yet Liszt's volume remains unique and essential. As a document of the nineteenth century, it is distinguished by the vivid impressions and insights of a true exemplar of the Romantic period. On a personal level, it is a souvenir of the relationship between two of the greatest composer-pianists in history, a portrait of one genius by another. Edward N. Waters of the Music Division in the Library of Congress has translated and introduced this work.
