Chopin - Mayzner Tadeusz

Tadeusz Mayzner, 1892-1939 a musician, teacher and communicator of music, had a rare gift - the ability to simply pass on truths about music and musicians. This is a book for the young. Mayzner has combined the interesting and humorous story of Chopin's life with a timeline of musical history. He has raised new issues: what does Chopin really mean through his Scherzos or the real relationships between traditional Polish dances. ''Chopin'' is a fabulous and smooth read.
