About the composer Frederic Chopin

Frederic Chopin

The son of a Polish mother and a French father who had emigrated to Poland, Chopin was born near Warsaw in 1810 and grew up in the capital. His prodigious talent for the piano manifested itself early, and by the age of eight he was appearing in public, even though he had had little professional guidance. By the age of 15 he was a published composer. At 19, he made a successful début in Vienna, and a year later he left Poland, eventually settling in Paris in 1831. He did not realize at the time that political turmoil would make it impossible for him to return to his beloved native country. In Paris he was accorded the highest artistic standing, and his friends included Liszt, Berlioz, Mendelssohn, Rossini, Bellini, Balzac, Heine and Delacroix.

In Paris he did a great deal of teaching, for which he was highly paid, and he frequented the salons of the aristocracy and haute bourgeoisie. He made few public appearances as a pianist, however, performing for the last time during a visit to England and Scotland in 1848. After his return to Paris his health declined dramatically, and he died there at the age of 39.
