He was one of the great masters of Romantic music. He is also known as the poet of the piano. A renowned child-prodigy pianist and composer, he grew up in Warsaw and completed his musical education there. The vast majority of Chopin’s works are exclusively for solo piano, the most notable exceptions being his two piano concertos. His compositions are technically demanding but emphasize nuance and expressive depth. Chopin invented the musical form known as the instrumental ballade and made major innovations to the piano sonata, mazurka, waltz, nocturne, polonaise, étude, impromptu and prélude. The beholder witnesses him in a moment of internal profoundness, as he mentally composes a masterpiece from his deep emotion, to be passed on to others for the ages. The handmade bronze sculpture was molded using the age-old method of lost-wax casting and stained with a brown patina finish for preservation. He is mounted upon a black marble base withthe artist A.
