Here it is performed by Daniel Barenboim at the Warsaw Philharmonic Concert Hall in 2010, during a recital marking the 200th anniversary of Chopin’s birth and the 60th anniversary of Barenboim’s stage debut.<br> <br> Chopin (1810-1849) composed his Waltz in F major, Op. 34, No. 3 in 1838 as the lively finale to his set of three Op. 34 waltzes. Although labelled a waltz, it was not meant only for the ballroom. Like many of Chopin’s dance pieces, it was written for the intimate salons of Paris, where he often performed for small groups of aristocrats and artists. The work is full of sparkling runs and sudden shifts in character, giving it an almost playful and unpredictable personality that sets it apart it from the more graceful and elegant earlier waltzes in the set.<br> <br> The piece emerged during an important period in Chopin’s personal life. Around this time, he had become closely involved with the novelist and early feminist icon George Sand, whose partnership would profoundly influence his emotional and artistic world. Despite recurring health problems and the uncertainty that accompanied his life in Paris, Chopin was enjoying considerable success in Parisian society. The cheerful brilliance of this waltz offers an interesting contrast to the more introspective and melancholic image often associated with the composer as its full of charm and lightheartedness. <br> <br> The Op. 34 waltzes were dedicated to Adèle d’Eichthal, a member of a well-to-do Parisian family connected Chopin's artistic circles. Unlike composers who relied heavily on public concerts to make a living, Chopin relied on private gatherings where his refined style was especially appreciated. This dedication reflects the importance of salon culture on his career.<br> <br> Argentinian-born pianist and conductor Daniel Barenboim started his career as a child piano prodigy and later went on to conduct some of the world's finest ensembles. He served as the music director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and later the Berlin State Opera. Over the years, Barenboim has frequently performed as a concert pianist, often paying tribute to the Romantic composers such as Chopin who have long served as inspiration.<br> <br> Author: Sarah Hucal<br> <br> © 2010 Accentus Music<br> <br> Discover more concert recordings: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_SdnzPd3eBV5A14dyRWy1KSkwcG8LEey">https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_SdnzPd3eBV5A14dyRWy1KSkwcG8LEey</a><br> <br> Browse more music by Frédéric Chopin: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJUklObWymw4">https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJUklObWymw4</a><br> <br> Explore our collection of solo piano masterpieces: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_SdnzPd3eBV8VQOtGGTUYSryvB_k8Wl">https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_SdnzPd3eBV8VQOtGGTUYSryvB_k8Wl</a>-<br> <br> Enjoy more great works from the Romantic era: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_SdnzPd3eBUCHNKKxIIM88sntDk1TVih">https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_SdnzPd3eBUCHNKKxIIM88sntDk1TVih</a><br> <br> Subscribe to DW Classical Music: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/dwclassicalmusic">https://www.youtube.com/dwclassicalmusic</a> <br> <br> #chopin #solopiano #barenboim</p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUtr4XUPKGA" target="_blank">- Enlace a artículo -</a></p> <p>Más info en https://ift.tt/TqZIyWr / Tfno. & WA 607725547 Centro MENADEL (Frasco Martín) Psicología Clínica y Tradicional en Mijas. #Menadel #Psicología #Clínica #Tradicional #MijasPueblo</p> <p>*No suscribimos necesariamente las opiniones o artículos aquí compartidos.
