Great masters of world music, patriotic Polish musician Chopin

 Foley was Lick. Chopin (1810 a 1849), was born in the outskirts of Warsaw hot Liyazuowa. Woli Ya. His father, Nicholas. Chopin was originally French, later moved Poland, who participated in the 1794 Polish national Heroes Kesi Qiu Vuk (1746m1817) led an uprising against the invaders. stranded after a failed uprising in Warsaw, live by the teaching work. Later, at home he opened a boarding school. From then on, he will not participate in public life, just to live in peace. But he and Warsaw's cultural sector has close contacts maintained that the idea of small Chopin growth is influential.
Chopin from an early age showed a special talent for music, not only playing the piano, and to compose. seven, had published his first piece mmG minor Polonaise. the age of eight, he held the first public concerts. Since then, the piano playing Chopin on the identity, are often invited to perform in Warsaw aristocracy, the incident became the darling of aristocratic salon .1825 years, came to Warsaw to participate in the Polish parliament Czar Alexander I of Russia, also attended a concert of Chopin, but also gave a Chopin gold diamond ring. Chopin's childhood, youth, these experiences, and his subsequent experiences forming a strong contrast.
Chopin in my youth, but also access to rural and urban folk music of Poland and many Polish patriots progressive ideas. In 1826, the Chopin Academy of Music officially became a student, teachers and students with many contacts ideological progress. all these years, Xiao Cheng often go to the countryside vacation. His country appreciated the natural scenery, listen to the peasants sing, play music, participate in village balls and weddings. motherland culture, folk music, like seeds, like planting the fields in the heart of Chopin.
end of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in Poland, is a troubled country, but also In a heroic nation .1772,1793,1795, Russia, Prussia, Austria, Poland, the three powers of the weak were divided three times. They carve up the territory of Poland, enslaved the people of Poland, the Polish people want to strangle the national consciousness, rule so that they can go on for long. However, as a patriotic song sung by Poland: National Romantic art, this struggle played an important role in promoting. At that time, Poland emerged a group patriotic thinkers and writers and artists. They claim to have distinctive ethnic characteristics of art, there must be freedom loving people and the ideological content , have a rich emotional colors. These ideas have a profound influence on Chopin. Chopin's friend, the Polish poet Victor Wei Ciji in a letter to Chopin wrote: , in the end ...... just as the Polish national character of nature, like the motherland, but also the melody of the motherland. mountains, forests, rivers, grass has its own intrinsic, country sound, although not every heart its voice can be heard. is written in a popular, nationality. alliance uprising. It is in such a volatile situation, the Chopin family, teachers and friends who urged the Chopin to go abroad to further study, and through his music creation and performance to obtain the honor for the motherland. To this end, Chopin is intense Among the ideological struggle, patriotism made him want to stay dedication makes him want to leave. He wrote: going back to my native town. I am convinced that I want to home dead. ah, the death was not born in the place is how sad! asked and expectations and encouraged him to make him aware of his responsibility to use art to praise the foreign country and their own nation, for which he was thrilled. He wrote: inspired by the voice of emotion, so my work (at least in part) to as John (referring to the seventeenth century the Polish King John III ��Ȱ�˹��. He had defeated the Turkish invaders, to recover the territory of the motherland, and Turks driven out of Vienna and Hungary, reputed in Europe.) sung by the forces of war songs. battle song is absolutely sound, but their echo still rippling sides of the Danube. add a Warsaw autumn wind, but when added to the pain of parting. bid farewell to friends in such departing words Dingning Zhao Chopin:
forgotten, never stop loving the motherland, to a warm, loyal heart. him. Chopin moved more so, when relatives and friends off to the outskirts of Warsaw, Chopin's birthplace Wo Liya mm, his teacher Elsner and some of the Warsaw Academy of Music students, torn waiting there, and sang Chopin for the Nutter Els wrote a farewell chorus:
Our Mazu Buick, carat may Wei Yake (Polish folk dance) shows you the glory of the motherland. burst into tears.
Chopin left the country a few weeks later, the Warsaw Uprising broke out, and have been successful. It is said that Chopin heard the news of the Warsaw Uprising, feel very excited, had to be home, is his best friend who suffered ladders advised him not to go back. When the ladders starting with disabilities to return to China after the uprising, Shaw had hired a chaise to catch up, ready to return home with him, the result for failing to catch up and return to Vienna. At this time, Chopin's friend in a Warsaw Horses Shensi Ji's letter said: , sent packing by Russian invaders, the establishment of their own political power in Poland. the Polish people of the heroic achievements, shocked the whole of Europe, is Europe's glorious page in the history of the revolution. However, victory in less than a year, betrayal of the Polish nobility as large, so that the outcome of the uprising were ruined. the Russian invasion forces again captured Warsaw, the Warsaw uprising was crushed. another day in a cold wind blows, Chopin in the journey to Paris, heard news of the fall of the Warsaw again. then he angry, distraught. In a letter addressed to ladders with disabilities, he said that the tremendous resentment against the aggressor: do not give them retribution! you guys regardless of the crimes in Moscow, or Moscow, or the guy you are! my poor father! my noble father, may he go hungry, and he had no money to his mother to buy bread! sister may be subjected to wanton the fury of Moscow scum torn! Pass Kai Weiqi (Pass Kai Weiqi is a Russian commander captured Warsaw.), this tomb of Lev bitch Mo, who occupied the top monarchy in Europe and land in!? Moscow man contact will become the world's system who ?...... ah! why I can not even kill a Moscow man ah! Polish people are Meanwhile, Chopin spent in Vienna, not the reactionary head of the Russian occupation of Warsaw, the Grand Duke Constantine wrote to the Russian Ambassador in Vienna a letter of introduction, and the Russian rulers since drawn a line completely. to the Warsaw Uprising as a symbol of the Polish national independence movement, Patriotism is like a large school, bringing numerous ethnic Polish soldiers, but also nurtured a group of national writers and artists in Poland. just leave the Warsaw Chopin two-year-old is still quite immature, but, after the second Warsaw uprising eleven-year-old Chopin, the disaster has been honed to be strong country again. his love of the motherland and hate the enemy, but also become more intense.
1831 ��, when Chopin arrived in Paris, France is in constitutional monarchy of the cultural and artistic center of Europe is one, but, as mentioned by Chopin in Paris: and speech and syphilis are related; cry, shouting, booming sound and more to the unimaginable extent of contamination, so that you become in this paradise at a loss, meaning that a person who does not say in how life .. .....Khodorkovsky's letter said: Embassy heard of you, you'll have more to the; if Wode Meng Hu Duchess shelter you, you'll be playing better. , was a success, but he was not satisfied. upper class luxury and false, can not hate the comfort of a full subjugation of the exiles that the hearts of .1832 by the end of suffering, he wrote a letter to Paris, the beautiful art of Ministers : concerts held on the 20th with ......is a great emptiness. known as the preparations, the only requirement is open to him in a concert for Polish nationals. first in Lipinski agreed, but later rejected, soon to go to Russia because he performed in Paris, if he played for the Polish nationals, Russians will cause resentment. This paradox of years of the revolution, because I was too young, but my heart is with those revolutionaries together. performance can be seen: Chopin did not live up to the expectations of relatives, friends and teachers and asked, he always maintained a loyal heart of the motherland.
Chopin soon became famous in Paris. He through his writing, performing and teaching, has won high degree of respect for the people. in Paris, Sharon, plus he also gradually lead a superior life, which his thoughts are bound to have some sense of the impact and local system, so that his bourgeois-democratic revolution and social reform, lack of understanding and sympathy, This has always been with the lot of his Polish nobility and their children are also more closely related to contact .1831 after a failed uprising in Warsaw, several thousand Poles in exile, of whom two-thirds in France, mostly intellectuals of noble blood, . They said from the political can be divided into two factions, conservatives and liberals. conservatives tend to monarchy, and not active in social reform; democratic faction advocated the immediate liberation of the peasants against the autocracy. For in Paris Polish democrats, do not know any of Chopin. from the ideological point of view, Chopin more inclined with the conservatives. So, for 1830 and 1848 outbreak of the bourgeois democratic revolution in France, Chopin's performance was very cool. These are the limitations of the class can not be said to be a reflection of the body in the Chopin.
Chopin settled in Paris ever since, only occasionally to the field trip .1835, he went to Germany ����ʿ�͵� meet briefly with their parents over time. In the same year the Polish nobility met in Dresden Ward Jin Siji's daughter Maria, and her love took place. The following year, Chopin to propose to her, but Chopin is not a noble, just not married, and was the father refused to .1836 by the end of Mary, Chopin met French woman writer. Sang, about a year later, they lived together until the break before breaking up in 1847. Chopin often gather in Paris well-known writers and artists of national exchanges, such as the Polish poet sticks close Cikai Wei, French writer Victor Hugo, Balzac, the German poet Heinrich Heine, the French painter Delacroix, Hungarian composer and pianist Franz Liszt, Italian composer home Bellini, Berlioz and other French composers. Although each of these writers and artists have the style, personality is often inconsistent, but they are each other's exchanges, so that with each other in thought and creative inspiration, which is the spirit of Chopin life is a comfort. However, after Chopin half years spent in Paris, still full of a sense of loneliness is difficult to distraction. afar guest, unaccompanied feelings, always depressed him endless grief. play from the thirties, Chopin often sick, the body very weak. hold a public concert, though can bring money and prestige, but do not like Chopin. His greatest pleasure is and Poland compatriots together. He said: patient medication, I never refused to close Cikai Wei Wen and Noel Wade playing, no matter which of them personally, I would sit down to play the piano, and sometimes has even said nothing. my music more than once cause them to tears, it tears it not cross the highest national artists (ie pay) it? ?! I do not close Cikai Wei Wen and the Sorbonne for fear mm Gaussian These are strong in the head, the head and then after a few lived in exile will not lose the sense of life and strength. see Chopin as a England and Scotland, he was invited to visit and performance, despite a warm welcome, but he was very disgusted . I had not experienced a real joy. I do not feel anything, I could only live like plants in a Cheung, patiently waiting for their end. The tragic end. However, for the motherland, the motherland for the future revival of the Polish Chopin has always been obsessed .1846 uprisings broke out in Krakow, after the failure took place in Galicia peasant uprising. These events have aroused the enthusiasm of Chopin, he In the letter, exclaimed: Poland will be a strong, beautiful, Poland, in short, Poland. ...... I know all about the Duchy of Poznan, terrible news. In addition, unfortunately, is unfortunate. I'm despair of. abiding love for the motherland. It is this passion that Chopin gave his last wish: go back. Warsaw silver cup in the country to bring the soil was sown in his cemetery. Chopin's heart is shipped back to his heart longing for the motherland, and buried in the feeding ground in the country he grew up.
Chopin's creative
Chopin's creation and His Times, social background and personal thoughts and life are closely linked. Chopin's writing career lasted thirty years (1817m1849), can be divided into two periods: (1) Warsaw period (1830 years ago) ; (2) Paris time (1831 m1849).
Chopin in Warsaw spent twenty years, in general, is a happy, cheerful. reflected in the creation of this period, the tone is optimistic mood , but the depth of thinking is limited. Although during this period, Chopin has written two piano concertos, some Etude Mazurka dance music and some excellent works, but after all, can not work during the Warsaw beyond the life of a yet weathered the test of experience, was twenty young people thought limitations. fresh, crisp of course most of the works of Chopin in Warsaw during the keynote, but some work. You can also see that too gorgeous, and even fragile pretense features, seen by the time the European salon style of music, and traces of the Polish nobility of .1829, the Chopin once wrote after the performance in Vienna, said: an extremely valuable thing is: I have already shown the Polish national characteristics. all kinds of folk dance genre, tempo, mood and customs of life, fantastic, so his work is very vivid, moving. If D minor and A minor Polonaise Mazurka dance music. Chopin's life to write the first piece is Polonaise (1817), writing the last piece is full of color Mazurka Polish folk dance (1849). It is a symbol of Chopin's life a Polish national composer's life, and it is the Polish people, Polish soil are closely linked to life. Chopin folk melody composer rarely used directly, but by the character of Polish folk music, the tonal themselves to create. his music Poland has both a strong style, full of personal original characteristics; not only with folk music are inextricably linked, but is carefully processed and artistic improvement.
1830 �� �� 1831 Warsaw uprising's success failure, not only determines the major shift in Chopin's life, prompting the idea to go with the maturity of Chopin, and also he created a watershed in early and late, which seem so different before and after, even if sub-if two. Since then, the works of Chopin The ideological higher, more profound feelings, the momentum even more ambitious project. His work has a lyrical tone poem from the feature evolved into a national epic features. in the Warsaw Uprising directly under the influence of C minor Etude, A minor and the D minor Prelude marks the sudden change occurred. in Paris, written succession of the first scherzo, the first grand narrative epic song and other songs, but also fully demonstrates the change in style.
Chopin in Paris soon entered a mature stage creation. After that work can be divided into two areas, the rise and fall of a country or person with the memory of the motherland, thought, looking forward to have contact, one is more reflected in the lives of Chopin in Paris, feel and fantastic. From the style of music, it can also be divided into two categories: one is the grand, dramatic; one is full of poetic, lyrical. many bourgeois commentators only see or only emphasized the lyricism of Chopin, delicate side, even Chopin called emotional world of the vast, ambitious, indeed, only to have a national soldiers. It is the stream of time, ethnic conflict, tragedy and life, so that Chopin's works were such a great momentum. But this does not prevent the great music of Chopin The fine, strong dramatic and beautiful lyricism, in his work is antagonistic and unified. For example, the strong rise Nocturne in c minor, middle and end to end section of the quiet contrast; second Ballade music repeatedly alternating image of two very different. And the performance of these comparisons are completely determined by the content, the overall development of organic, performance results, and certainly not a pure form for comparison and contrast.
the last years of the creation of Chopin, though There is also a high-spirited mood of individual works, such as living will decline, the result of pessimism there grow. from the number that the last few years of written works, and Chopin at the time that physical weakness, depression and mood.
almost all the works of Chopin piano music . Although his teacher Elsner, etc. have repeatedly encouraged him to the creation of national opera, but the director knew his Chopin and the short, and always limited to the piano writing. create in no way affect the limitations of the scope of the state as a composer yet great. He's in the field of piano music, not only wrote a large number of outstanding works and piano music, and the whole history of music has made a significant contribution. His works inherit and carry forward the European eighteen, ten the early nineteenth century tradition of classical music, which greatly enriched the first half of the nineteenth century European romantic music of the world, and half of the nineteenth century Romantic music continue to develop, the rise of the national school, and then the whole the development of modern music (including the nineteenth and twentieth century impressionistic music, etc.), there is a great inspiration and influence. His work is full of originality often full of broad cantabile, moving melodies, and the sound is very colorful and expressive, lively rhythms, and often with the Polish folk music and dance are closely linked, is also in the form of a variety of genres, also has a high degree of creativity.
