That small country looms up very big indeed in the history of the piano. Paderewski, the greatest pianist of our time, and one of the best composers (although his day as such has not yet come), is a Pole, and so is the pianist who ranks next to him, Josef Hofmann. Karl Tausig, in his day, was a piano giant; while three other Poles are well known to all music-lovers of our time,Moszkowski and the Scharwenka brothers, all of them composers for the same instrument. Greatest of all the Poles, however, is Frdric Franois Chopin. While his name is usually printed with the French accents, and the French are inclined to claim him as their own because his father emigrated from France to Poland, he himself was as thoroughly Polish in all his sympathies as his mother, and there is reason to believe that his paternal ancestors also came originally from Poland. Some of the traits that have endeared his music to all players and listenersits elegance, its charm, its polished stylemake it seem French; but the Poles also are noted for these same qualities; and in other respects Chopins music is as thoroughly and unmistakably Polish as it is an expression of his unique genius. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
