Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Chopin However great may be the popularity of the compositions of a writer broken down by suffering long prior to the day when death seized him, it cannot be doubted that his posterity will hold his works in far higher esteem than did his contempor aries. Those who shall in future write the history of music will assuredly give a very exalted rank to one who distinguished himself in his art by so rare a genius for melody, and by such wondrous and graceful expansion Of the resources of harmony; and his triumphs will be far more appreciated than those of many others who covered a larger space, though the works Of the latter may be over and over again played by the full orchestra and over and over again sung by crowds Of prime donne.

Download or read book F Chopin Classic Reprint written by Franz Liszt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-12 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from F. Chopin Les formes multiples de l'art n'étant que des ih cantations diverses, destinées à évoquer les senti ments et les passions, pour les rendre sensibles, tan gibles en quelque sorte, et en communiquer les frémissements, le génie se manifeste par l'invention de formes nouvelles adaptées parfois à des senti ments qui n'ont point encore surgi dans le cercle enchanté. Peut - ou espérer que dans ces arts où la sensation est liée à l'émotion sans l'intermédiaire de la pensée et de la réflexion, la seule introduction de formes et de modes inusités ne soit déjà un obstacle àla compréhension immédiate d'une oeuvre?... La surprise et mème la fatigue, occasionnées par l'etran gete des impressions inconnues qu'elle ré veille, ne la font-elles pas paraître au grand nombre comme écrite dans une langue qu'on ignore, et qui, par cela mème, semble d'abord barbare?. La seule peine d'y habi tuer l'oreille suffit pour en rebuter beaucoup, qui refusent opiniâtrément de l'étudier avec suite. Ce sont en premier lieu les organisations les plus vives et les plus jeunes. Qui le moins enchaînées par cetattrait de l'habitude, respectable mème en ceux chez qui il est invincible, se prennent de curiosité, puis de passion pour l'idiome nouveau; c'est par elles qu'il pénètre et gagne les régions récalcitrantes du public, et que celui - ci finit par en saisir le sens, la portée, la construction, et par rendre justice aux qualités ou aux richesses qu'il peut renfermer. Pour ces raisons, les musiciens qui ne s'asheignent pas aux routines conventionnelles ont besoin plus que d'autres artistes de l'aide du temps. Ils ne peuvent mème espérer que la mort apporte à leurs travaux cette plus - cab instantanée qu'elle donne à ceux des peintres, et aucun d'eux ne pourrait renouveler au profit de ses manuscrits le subterfuge d'un des grands maîtres flamands, qui voulut de son vivant exploiter sa gloire future, en chargeant sa femme de répandre le bruit de son décès, pour faire ren chérir les toiles dont il avait eu soin de garnir son atelier.

Download or read book Chopin and Other Musical Essays Classic Reprint written by Henry Theophilus Finck and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chopin and Other Musical Essays Leipsic, the centre of the world's music trade, ex. Ports about one hundred thousand dollars' worth of music to America every year. I do not know how much of this sum is to be placed to the account of Chopin, but a leading music dealer in New York told me that he sold three times as many of Chopin's com positions as of any other romantic or classical com poser. This seems to indicate that Chopin is popu lar. Nevertheless, I believe that what Liszt wrote in 1850, a year after the death of Chopin - that his fame was not yet as great as it would be in the fut ure - is as true to-day as it was forty years ago. Chopin's reputation has been constantly growing, and yet many of his deepest and most poetic com positions are almost unknown to amateurs, not tc speak of the public at large. A few of his least characteristic pieces are heard in every parlor, gen erally in a wofully mutilated condition, but some of his most inspired later works I have never heard played either in private or in the concert hall.

Download or read book Chopin written by James Huneker and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-11 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chopin: The Man and His Music Gustave flaubert, pessimist and master of cadenced lyric prose, urged young writers to lead ascetic lives that in their art they might be violent. Chopin's violence was psychic, a travailing and groaning of the spirit; the bright roughness of adventure was missing from his quotidian existence. The tragedy was within. One recalls Maurice Maeterlinck: Whereas most of our life is passed far from blood, cries and swords, and the tears of men have become silent, invisible and almost spiritual. Chopin went from Poland to France from Warsaw to Paris - where, finally, he was borne to his grave in Pere la Chaise. He lived, loved and died; and not for him were the perils, prizes and fascinations of a hero's career. He fought his battles within the walls of his soul - we may note and enjoy them in his music. His out ward state was not niggardly of incident. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Chopin Waltzes for the Piano Classic Reprint written by Frédéric Chopin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-24 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chopin Waltzes for the Piano Chopin is not only the poet of the pianoforte, he is the poet of music, the most poetic among com posers. Compared with him Bach seems a maker of solid polyphonic prose, Beethoven a scooper of stars, a master of growling storms, Mozart a weaver of gay tapestries, Schumann a romantic wanderer. Schubert, alone, resembles him in lyric prodigality. Both were masters of melody, but Chopin was the master-workman of the two, and polished, after bending and beating his theme, fresh from the fire of his forge. He knew that to complete his wailing Iliads the strong and cunning hand was necessary; and he also realized that nothing is more difficult for the genius than to retain his own gift. Of all natures the most prone to procrastination, pessimism and vanity, the artist is conquered by ennui. It is not always easy to ame at the focus, to burn fiercely with the central fire. Chopin knew this, therefore cultivated his ego. He saw that the love of beauty-for-beauty's sake was fascinating, but led to the way called madness. So he rooted his art in the earth of Poland. Chopin neither preaches nor paints; yet his art is dec orative and dramatic - in the climate of the ideal. He touches life and its issues in Poland only; otherwise, his music is a pure aesthetic delight, an artistic enchantment freighted with no ethical or theatric messages. Just because he did not label his works with any but general titles, Ballades, Studies, Preludes, Scherzi, and the like, his music sounds all the better; the listener is not pinned down to any precise mood, the music being allowed to work its particular charm without the aid of literary crutches for unimaginative minds.
