Frederic Chopin is main composer in early romantic music. He is born at Poland. The most of his pieces is a piano solo, so he is often called “a poet of piano.” He wrote a lot of piano soli and a lot of pianist (amateur and professional) like to play his music today. His main are Nocturne in E flat major, 12 etude op.10-3 E major, 12 etude op.10-12 C minor, fantasie in F minor, heroic poronaize, fantaisie-impromptu in C sharp minor.

They say Chopin is weak but his pieces are not only delicate, his pieces are sometimes also powerful. A etude “revolution”, prelude in D minor(op.24-28) and scherzo in B minor is powerful and passionate pieces. They are written during Revolution Warsaw because he like his country Poland in those days Poland is dominated by Russia. He want to fight as soldier but he is not allowed because he is weak. So, he decided to describe his passion in piano.

He likes his country Poland very much. In 1831 he moved to Paris, but he always feel nostalgia. Therefore he have a strong rebellious spirit to the great powers that dominate Poland.
