Chopin Foundation of the United States

A Video Premier of Chopin's Early Works Recorded Exclusively for this Special Presentation - Introductory talk with Kevin Kenner.

Thank you for support the Chopin Foundation and young American pianists.

In an exclusive performance arranged just for the Chopin Foundation, Kevin Kenner will explore some of the beautiful works that Chopin composed early in his career. Free for Chopin Foundation Members / Non-members by donation<h3>Registered guests will be sent a link via email to watch the performance. Access to the performance will start at 4 PM on Sunday, January 17th.</h3>“This program includes the first known work [Chopin] composed (the G minor Polonaise),” said Kenner, “and the piece (Variations Op. 2) that sparked his career and drew attention from Robert Schumann who remarked about the work, ‘Hats off, gentlemen! A genius!’ These pieces are less popular than the later often played works, but in my view reveal the important core influences to his style. And as we continue to celebrate 2020 as marking his 210th birthday, I thought these early works remind us of his birthplace.” An informative introductory conversation between Kevin Kenner and Professor Frank Cooper will start the event.This performance will be available online for 48 hours after the initial broadcast for those who cannot watch on January 17 at 4 PM. Registration by January 17 is still required.
