Reply to "Labellessness: public acclaim creates reclusiveness"

Dear Teo,

Thank you for your quotes from the "Chopin" book by Adam Zamoysky.

I love the music of Frederic Chopin, and find an appropriate description of his works by the poet Norwid, as read at Choipin's funeral :

He knew how to devide the greatest mysteries of art with astonishing ease. He could gather the flowers of the field without disturbing the dew or the lightest pollen. And he knew how to fashion them into stars, meteors, as it were comets, lighting up the sky of Europe, through the ideal of art. In the crystal of his own harmony he gathered the tears of the Polish people strewn over the fields, and placed them as the diamond of beauty in the diadem of humanity.
