 Genius is essentially1 sympathetic and would draw all men into rapport2 with its world of light and love. Companioned it must be, aye, close companioned! But descend3 it will never because to Genius its world embodies4 more of reality than does all this terrestrial globe.
Happy the master gathering5 around him his little following! Happy indeed the genius, the solitary6 being, who finds among men an ideal friend; one to whom self-explanation, so hateful to Genius, is needless; one who knows instinctively7 the soul life of the other! To Genius that friend is a proof of its mission; a witness that it lives not a thing more useless than the most ordinary mortal; an assurance that it yet will come into the fullness of its own. Such a friend Chopin was now to find within that great Paris which like a gigantic lodestone was drawing him to herself.
Franz Liszt, the Hungarian composer, pianist and litterateur, was born in 1811, and in 1831, the date of Chopin's advent8 in the French capital, he was but twenty years of age, and so by two years the junior of the Pole. Soon the fame of the younger man would eclipse even that of Kalkbrenner, esteemed9 the first pianist of the day. Liszt was steadily10 nearing an eminence11 ever afterward12 his own against all comers, that of the world's unparalleled pianoforte virtuoso13.
The artist who, in days to come, would first divine and adequately measure the comprehensiveness of Wagner; the timely helper who would deem it a duty, a privilege, to aid and cheer the impecunious14 political refugee in the despondent15 years of his exile; the whole-hearted enthusiast16 whose determined17 arm would open for the composer of ?Lohengrin,? the close-shut door of the Temple of Fame, was the friend in whom Chopin now saw reflected his own peculiar18 genius. As the painter, stepping backward from his easel, scans his work as a whole, and in the most favorable light, so, from the view-point of Liszt's intuitive rendering19, Chopin better estimated his own productions than could otherwise have been possible.
That consummate20 interpretation21 of a work proves not one's ability to create its like is shown by the coming together of Chopin and Liszt. While Liszt was indubitably of advantage to Chopin, the latter in turn reacted upon the former. In the nature of the fiery22 Hungarian, and that of the dreamy Pole, were those resemblances and differences which make high friendship a possibility and also a means of mutual23 growth through reciprocity of ideas.
The fascinating and dominating Liszt was by nature a Bohemian. From first to last he dwelt in the realm of those laxities and unconventionalities which dismay the ordinary mortal, but whose glamour24 is over the life of many an artist. And yet, despite every shortcoming, Liszt had that which was much indeed, a virtue25 frequently the saving one of genius, to wit, the artistic26 conscience.
Beneath a demeanor27 disguising rather than revealing his inner self, Chopin was an ardent28 soul, a Polish patriot29 from whose heart overflowed30, to his every page, the sorrows of his native land. Those sorrows were a cloud shadowing the radiance of his ideal world, and at times dulling it almost to the sombre hues31 of this earth, begetter32 of many sorrows.
It is regrettable that Chopin sought to bind33 within the limits of conventional forms, already half outgrown34, his poetical35 ideas amenable36 only to the requirements of those freer forms for which Berlioz and Schumann were striving, and to which Wagner ultimately attained38.
In his Impromptus39, and a few other ventures beyond self-imposed barriers, Chopin made most praiseworthy use of freedom, but quickly he returns to contemplation of his beloved Mozart, that perfect master of classical form. Naturally the polished frequenter of the Parisian drawing-room and salon40, found no lasting41 pleasure in the wild freedom and amplitude42 of the forest of Romanticism. The change was too abrupt43 and novel. Those far-reaching vistas44 of unfrequented shade! How different from the metropolitan45 thoroughfare! Those mighty46 but fantastically-growing trees thick-planted by Nature's careless hand! those never-trimmed and irregular branches! those fallen and dismantled47 trunks! How unlike the well-kept parks of Paris and Versailles!
While composing, Chopin never quite divorced himself from the keyboard of his piano, and yet the writer who would attain37 to untrammeled expression, in both matter and form, should compose beneath a roof no narrower than the dome48 of heaven. Let the study be his reference room, his library, and, for convenience, his place of final elaboration. Like Beethoven and Wordsworth, let him receive at first hand the impartings of Nature that needed teacher of us all.
In the heart of Chopin the melodies of his beloved Poland, mingling49 with his own imaginings, became invested with a subtle, poetical charm and a delicate sweetness idealizing their own quaint50 loveliness.
The Mazurka! does it not bring the peasant gathering on the green; the evening or the holiday of swaying forms and agile51 feet and rustic52 beauty in the graceful53 round? The Polonaise! does it not bring the brilliant hall; the jewelled fair; the stately-moving, king-led company of lords and noble dames54? Yes, such were the scenes which, to the dances of his people, Chopin had conjured55 from the happy, bygone days. How appealing this music to those of the old Polish nobility then finding in Paris their most congenial abode56 in exile! Largely through the influence of these the Parisian success of Chopin was speedier, although more circumscribed57, than that of Meyerbeer, who, only by laborious58 and painstaking59 adaptation of his methods to the requirements of the French operatic stage, won the Parisian public and brought them to their knees before the shrine60 of ?Robert.?
In the homes of rank and wealth, Chopin now mingles61 with princes, ministers, ambassadors and literary notables. Titled ladies are his pupils and, because he would have it so, he deems his musical self best understood by the lionizing fashionables of French society who, in fact, looked not beneath the finished, but by no means robust62 virtuoso, and polished gentleman conforming to their every convention.
The fashionables of French society! Oh for a moment natural and true amidst the false and artificial hours! A candid63, soul-sprung greeting to shame the outward suavity64 where envy rankles65, or where hatred66 burns within! Oh for a laden67 word to prove the hollowness of empty tongues! A normal heart of innocence68 in that blasé assembly! Oh for an individuality unrepressed; a potent69 unit in that crowd of merest ciphers70!
It is almost incredible that in such environment Chopin composed many of his noblest works. His Rondo in C minor71 Op. 1, published in 1825, when he was but sixteen years of age, and therefore in the old Warsaw days, had announced the advent of a writer of the highest rank, one authoritatively72 proclaimed by Schumann on the appearance of the variations in B flat Op. 2. Arriving in Paris late in the year 1831, the man of two-and-twenty was already known to musicians like Franz Liszt and Ferdinand Hiller, as creator of such music as the Concerto73 in F minor, the Concerto in E minor, and the Funeral March in C minor. This last was afterward eclipsed by the great march in the B flat minor Sonata74. But the bulk of Chopin's pianoforte works was written during the next seventeen years, and despite adverse75 conditions other than those of environment.
