Pianist, composer and sensitive romantic. Fryderyk Chopin – a truly international talent. And he was born and spent his childhood in Poland! It was here that he had loving parents and a home that resounded with music. It was in a country that did not exist on the map at that time that he experienced his first contacts with the keyboard and his first performances before the Warsaw audience. Here he developed his extraordinary potential before leaving for Paris. Was it his Polishness that influenced his exceptional music?
