An “Impromptu” visit to Poland gave me many opportunities to see the handsome face of Chopin – some as neatly chiseled as Hugh Grant in the 1991 movie that chronicled his romance with novelist George Sand. Wanting a more realistic perspective, I am now reading “The life of Frederic Chopin” by his friend and fellow composer Franz Liszt – free online from Project Gutenberg – now on my Kindle.
