Chopin for Lovers!
Each composition of this program was inspired by a different woman in the composer's love life! Concert will include the vivacious E Flat waltz, the touching "farewell waltz," the dreamy larghetto Opus 21, some demonic preludes from Opus 28, and the famous fantasy impromptu. Bring a significant other and enrich your lives with some of the most stirring romantic music ever written!

Chopin the Patriot
Listen to the dance! The polonaise and the mazurka, two national Polish dances, had special meaning for this proud Polish composer. This program includes three polonaises; the tender G minor of the 8-year-old genius, the brooding C minor, and the ever popular heroic A flat, as well as several buoyant and poignant mazurkas, perhaps Chopin's most personal works.

Chopin and the Future
Chopin is not only one of the most popular composers of all time but one of the most influential as well. The program includes works of Chopin that both delight the ear and point to the future - etudes and nocturnes - as well as compositions of Tchaikovsky, Debussy, Scriabin, and Szymanowski.
