Alexander Cherkov, "Frederic Chopin", 2019, ceramic bas-relief, 4X45X22 cm
Selected Quotes by Composer Frederic Chopin:
"Simplicity is the ultimate, achievable goal, only after overcoming all difficulties."
"Music has no ancestral land, its land is the whole universe."
"When someone does something, it looks good, otherwise he would not have written it. Only then does the contemplation come, and the person rejects or accepts the thing. Time is the best censorship, and patience is the best teacher."

A few words about Chopin
Frederic Francois Chopin (1810-1849), was a Polish virtuoso composer and pianist. His many piano works are considered masterpieces, and almost all pianists perform his works in their recitals. Chopin wrote and composed poetry as early as age 6, and performed at his first public concerto at age 8. By the time he was 12, Chopin had already performed in the guest rooms of countless Polish aristocrats and created original works. He inherited the music gardens from his parents, his mother was a piano teacher, and his father was an expert in flute and violin. He was shy, appearing in only about 30 public concerts in his lifetime. Chopin is one of the few composers whose style crystallized and remained the same in his youth and never changed during his life.
