Maria Isabel Pita
This critically acclaimed imaginary autobiography of Frédéric Chopin was given a privileged place in the Fryderyk Chopin Museum in Warsaw on his Bicentennial, "Since it's written by him," wrote the museum's director to the author.
A work of lovely lyrical and musical accents written in Chopin's voice, Manuscript in Dreams brings to light the most meaningful moments and aspects of the composer’s life and work. Juana Rosa Pita threads together “manuscripts that appeared from dream to dream…” and the result is an ensemble of intimate pieces subtly combined in an engaging kaleidoscope of letters, narratives and poems.
A diversity of characters - George Sand, Clara Schumann, Heine, Hallé, Delacroix - parade through this audiobook and contribute to their remarkable immediacy, while poems offer a precise emotional counterpoint. A heartfelt homage to an unrivaled composer.

It is a walk through the life of Chopin in which we are guided by the composer himself and his friends
The writer, Ms Juanana Rosa Pita gives us this tour not by the usual way of relationship between writer and creation but through a new way of creating and presenting her work.
The narration, made by her daughter Ms Maria Isabel Pita, is accurate and pleasant to hear. English is not my mother tongue but even so, I had no problem understanding the narration. Only in a few situations of lack of vocabulary on my part, they were resolved quickly.
I strongly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about Chopin's life as well as being amazed at the author's creation.
Splendid work to be heard and savored

In this manuscript, Ms. Pita presents the experiences, passions and life of Chopin. She does this, not by studying 3rd party literature or biographies. Rather she uses her passion for Chopin, and collects her feelings and intuitions, and weaves a beautiful story performed oftentimes in poetic verse. It's really quite compelling and unique in method and presentation.
I would recommend this work in general. But particularly for those who would like some insights into what drove Chopin, delivered in a rather unique way.
Beautifully Written and Performed
