Description

""Frederic Chopin As A Man And Musician V2"" is a book written by Frederick Niecks that provides a comprehensive and detailed analysis of the life and work of the famous composer Frederic Chopin. The book is divided into two volumes, with this being the second volume, and covers Chopin's later years, including his travels, relationships, and compositions. Niecks delves into Chopin's personal life, exploring his relationships with family, friends, and lovers, and how they influenced his music. The book also examines Chopin's musical style and technique, providing insights into his compositions and the musical trends of his time. The author's extensive research and knowledge of Chopin's life and music make this book an invaluable resource for music scholars and enthusiasts alike. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the life and work of one of the greatest composers in history.While in examining the earlier works, the praise bestowed on them was often largely mixed with censure, and the admiration felt for them tempered by dissatisfaction; we shall have little else than pure praise and admiration for the works that remain to be considered, at least for the vast majority of them. One thing, however, seems to me needful before justice can be done to the composer Chopin: certain prejudices abroad concerning him have to be combated. I shall, therefore, preface my remarks on particular compositions and groups of compositions by some general observations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
