A new edition of Adam Zamoyski's definitive biography of Chopin first published in 1979 & unavailable in English for many years. Few composers elicit such strong emotions as Chopin. Few have been more revered & cherished. & few have had so much sentimental nonsense written about them. Published to coincide with the bicentenary of Chopin's birth Adam Zamoyski's compelling new biography cuts through the mass of anecdote & myth that has sprung up around the composer's life & the ebullient & striking personalities of Romantic Paris among whom he lived including Liszt Berlioz Victor Hugo & George Sand in search of the real Chopin. Zamoyski brings to the subject an unrivalled knowledge of the historical social & cultural background of the composer's native Poland as well as of the France in which he spent most of his creative life. He has scoured the archives of Warsaw Krakow Paris & London in his quest for the truth & has based his account exclusively on primary sources & contemporary accounts. The result is a biography of authority perception & wit. Chopin emerges from the sugary romantic mist in which he has been shrouded as a real palpable personality a man of intelligence & humour; in music an innovator of genius; in business a feckless spendthrift; in love hesitant & tender; in friendship passionately loyal but often intolerably exacting. Through a close reading of his letters & the use of everyday detail Zamoyski draws the reader into the private world of this most complicated & reticent of men
- 'a man made for intimacy' as the poet Heinrich Heine called him
- & reveals the real passions suffering & ultimate tragedy of his life.
