Ce récit, entrecoupé de digressions, à la manière des contes orientaux, agace et retient comme un philtre du temps passé.

Gerard Schwarz explains how Chopin came to embody the Romantic Movement with his rich harmonic shadings, his intense poetic expression, and his attention to the sensual qualities of music. But Chopin did more than just write music imbued with the spirit of Romanticism.
