L'homme derrière le mythe.

Reconnu comme l'un des plus grands compositeurs de la période romantique du XIXe siècle, Fréderic Chopin est passé à la postérité pour ses œuvres magistrales et la beauté indicible de ses mélodies qui continuent de nous bouleverser. Dans cet ouvrage singulier, Guy de Pourtalès livre aux lecteurs l'univers intime de ce génie, mort à seulement 39 ans. De sa naissance à ses plus grands concerts, en passant par ses amours fiévreuses (Marie Wodzinska, George Sand...), ses amitiés célèbres (Franz Liszt, Eugène Delacroix...), toute la vie secrète de cet illustre musicien est retracée avec finesse et pertinence.

Cette magnifique biographie se lit comme un roman. D'une modernité saisissante, ce texte dévoile les nombreuses légendes et croyances entourant ce poète du piano, en racontant sans détour ni fard l'homme derrière le mythe. Les compositions musicales de ce virtuose, figure mythique de la musique classique, influencent encore aujourd'hui la musique à travers le monde.

English description: The man behind the myth.

Recognized as one of the greatest composers of the nineteenth-century Romantic era, Frédéric Chopin is renowned for his masterful works and the haunting beauty of his melodies.

In this distinctive book, Guy de Pourtalès reveals the intimate world of a genius who died at only thirty-nine.

From his childhood to his musical triumphs, from his passionate loves with Marie Wodzińska and George Sand to his friendships with Franz Liszt and Eugène Delacroix, the secret life of the musician is portrayed with remarkable finesse.

Reading like a novel, this modern biography unveils the legends surrounding the poet of the piano and reveals the real man behind the myth.

The influence of his compositions still resonates throughout the world today.
