Chopin and I have an unusual relationship. He is big on the Piano and I´m not exactly musical. It would be his 200th birthday this year if he had a healthier lifestyle and I´m turning 30. Two big milestones.
He has also been avoiding me on our travels. We arrive in Gdansk, concerts evey other day except when we are there. Poznan, Wroclaw, Katowice, Krakow, Berlin and Vienna to boot. I got the feeling he doesn´t like me.
We are both half Polish living in foreign lands so we are not completely unalike. But all was forgiven when I found out at a music museum here that this great composer was rather glad to leave Vienna behind him. Tell me about it.
