Title: Chopinova umelecká poetika a jej rezonancia
Author: Miloslav Starosta
Abstract: The submitted study was presented within the project ‘Homage to FCH’ on April 22, 2010 at the Academy of Performing Arts in Bratislava. The author summarized Chopin’s unique artistic poetics and its resonance from several aspects. He presents some very important influences which had formed it, as well as its influence on Chopin’s successors: the following generations of composers, and his pupils who were sensitively developing the spirit of Chopin’s artistic pedagogics. The substantial features of the piano composition, development of pianistics and pedagogics of the piano play of the Polish genius are analyzed briefly. In all these realms conspicuous attributes of a new musical mind predominated, the unusually peculiar piano sound and striking performing characteristics marked by a unique art of improvisation. Nonetheless, the master had preserved his links to the roots of the Polish traditional music, as well as to great paragons of the past: Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Hummel, Bellini..., and to the vocal art of bel canto. The traces of his influence are apparent in the music of Debussy, Fauré, Delius, Ravel, Skryabin, Balakirev, Lyadov, Szymanowski, as well as in the music of composers from Latin America; they reach as far as to Messiaen and other composers. Chopin’s bequest has been also preserved naturally due to a great number of performers of both the past and the present. He remains an obligatory discipline for disciples of pianistics and a constant challenge for matured artists. However, basically he is still an exceptional composer, whose achievements could not be diluted even by the passing of the centuries.
