Frederic Chopin
February 22, 1810 – October 17, 1849
Frederic Chopin was a Polish composer.
Chopin was first taught piano by his sister. He swiftly outgrew these lessons, however, and began to study privately under various musicians throughout Warsaw. It became clear that Chopin was a prodigy. Before long his skills were being recommended to wealthy patrons. This allowed him to perform works of the masters while beginning to explore his own compositions.
He quickly outgrew Warsaw and moved to Paris. There he worked as an elite piano teacher, and continued composing his pieces. His success was slow but assured: he is known for his expressive and emotive piano compositions with appealing melodies that require considerable skill to perform.
The majority of Chopin’s works are composed for solo piano. He did, however, create piano concertos, and chamber pieces as well.
Notable works:
Revolutionary Etude
Minute Waltz
Funeral March
Nocturnes
Stuart has been a performer for 15 years and composer for the past 10. His influences range from Chopin to Fatboy Slim embracing authentic acoustic instruments together with modern technology.
He has released four albums as part of Jive Ass Sleepers, a seriously jazzy, funky project influenced by 70s fusion and 90s acid jazz. He has also placed many songs on tv, movies and numerous other types of media. If you need a gritty urban funk track for an action sequence, inspirational world music for a documentary or perhaps some bossa nova to play in your elevator, it’s all going on here.
