701 Steinbach Nutcracker Chopin |

|
| Chopin
I was once on vacation in summer in
Valdemossa in Majorca. There stood the old piano that had been used by
Frederic Chopin. The old monastery has as museum property a lot of
pieces of music on manuscript paper — (polonaise — mazurka —
cracowiak, waltzes), a plaster cast of his delicate hand is also kept
there.
The musical genius lived from 1810—
1849, and for health reasons he spent several years on Majorca with his
girlfriend George Sand.
Chopin’s father was a French diplomat
in Warsaw, his mother was Polish. His body was buried in Paris, but his
heart came to Warsaw, where today in a beautiful park there is an
artistic memorial to the composer whose music is said to have a fragrant
lightness. Great music festivals take place every year in honour of the
master.
Our nutcracker has been made exactly in
the light relaxed PolishSlavian dancing style. You can turn the figure
and piano to whatever position you like. To live like the Poles means in
a relaxed way with the zestful mood of enjoyment of our time! |
