Chopin: Thousands of pages of his life and work available with a click
Composer and pianist, Frédéric Chopin died in Paris in 1849 at the age of thirty-nine from a lung condition. The son of a French father and a Polish mother, he began playing the piano at the age of four. At twenty-one he moved to France, although echoes of the folklore of his beloved Poland remained evident in his prolific work. The Frédéric Chopin Institute in Warsaw has brought it together on a free platform that is accessible to everyone with just one click.
