â??He is one of the greatest piano composers, maybe even the greatest one himselfâ?, â?? said Miliy Alexeyevich Balakirev (1836â??1910) about Fryderyk Chopin. â??Chopin is a worldwide genius. Surely there were composers having revealed torrents of intellect and inner might, but none of them nourished music with such cordiality as Chopin, having instilled Slavonic element to universal music treasury.â? The head of the â??New Russian Schoolâ? seemed to have peeped to nowadays, when Chopin is recognized and loved all over the world. Actually every page of Chopinâ?s compositions sheds poetic air, fearless expressions of human lifeâ?s dramatic circumstances. Hence so many people today could repeat Balakirevâ?s words: Chopin doesnâ?t stop touching me deeply. His music is akin to my soulâ?.
