Musician's or Publisher's Notes

Feuille d'Album       Frédéric Chopin

Chopin's piano music remains the most frequently played in history.  He is one of the few universal masters, and has never suffered an eclipse.  Arthur Rubinstein wrote: "...it is not Romantic music in the Byronic sense.  It does not tell stories or paint pictures.  It is expressive and personal, but still a pure art."

Almost every note he wrote is in the permanent repertoire, but this first group of short pieces on today's program (written from different periods of his career) is an exception-they have remained little-known.     Ren Zhang
