"Hello ! My name is Anh. My major is not music but the piano has come along with my life since I was six years old. My passion for music helped me keep playing during the busiest times. I have been collecting classical CDs for many years, including both piano and orchestral music, especially piano music of Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Chopin, Schumann, Liszt, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Scriabin, and Rachmaninoff. My greatest Chopin collections are the Rubinstein Chopin Collection 11CDs (released in 1991) by RCA and the Complete Chopin Edition 17CDs (released in 1999) by Deutsche Grammophon. Besides, I am interested in comparing different versions of a masterpiece played by various pianists. I also like searching and reading articles about classical music."
" I launched this website on the 150th anniversary of Chopin's death (October 17, 1999) in memory of the great composer. At that time, the online resources about Chopin and his music were extremely limited. I tried to gather information from different sources, especially through the great contribution of visitors in the "Questions" section and the old discussion board to create a place where visitors can find information about Chopin for school projects, further reading, and enjoyment of Chopin's music. The website gained its popularity in a short time and has been a favorite place for Chopin's music lovers all over the world. I am grateful for continued contribution, support, and participation from visitors and friends.
With this site, I hope that people having interest in Chopin's music can exchange their ideas, play the games and above all discover the world of Chopin. If you have any suggestion, please feel free to contact me at frederichchopin (at) yahoo dot com. Please also bring to my attention any error or controversial issue you found at this website. Thank you for visiting and please do not forget to sign my guestbook." (Source: Website: Chopin. The poet of the piano).
