Lecture recital by Pavel Timofeyevsky

Four portraits of Frederic Chopin:
the genesis of a genius 

Inspiring in many an obsessive kind of devotion, Frederic Chopin changed the face of art and culture forever. Pavel Timofeyevsky will examine the great composer from four different angles; 'The Person' , focusing on key events in the life of an emigre musician,  'The Artist', composer and performer, his relationship with contemporaries, his influence after his death,  'The Teacher',  a fascinating view from the testaments of his pupils. and 'The Myth' - a historical phenomenon extending far beyond the realm of classical music.
