SUMMARY:Monday Enrichment - Fryderyk Chopin's Revolution at the Piano
DESCRIPTION:The Polish composer-pianist Fryderyk Chopin (1810-1849) revolutionized the way one played and composed for the piano. Listeners at the time understood that Chopin was creating something radically new. Chopin expert David Kasunic\, Professor of Music at Occidental College\, gives us a guided tour through Chopin's music and piano technique to uncover Chopin's revolutionary approach to the piano and its legacy.\n\n\n\nDavid Kasunic is a Professor of Musicology at Occidental College in Los Angeles\, California\, and the Director of its John Branca Institute for Music. He is the author of many articles and book chapters on Chopin\, most recently on the influence of Meyerbeer's ballet music on Chopin's Parisian waltzes and on the phenomenon of tubercular singing\, which examines the relationship between early nineteenth-century diagnostic pathology and music analysis. Forthcoming are articles on Chopin and philosophy and on Robert Schumann's reception of Chopin\, as well as the Chopin chapter for the Oxford Handbook on Musical Variation.\n\n\n\nFree and open to the public. Donations are welcome!\n\nTo live stream this program\, visit our website.  A recording will also be available from the website one week later.\n\nhttps://ncca.memberclicks.net
