Chopin as a Teacher.
Chopin had a great many pupils amongst the Parisians.
The chief thing that he taught them was to play with a beautiful light touch.
As you know, there are some pianists who have done lots CHOPIN 91 of scales and exercises and made their fingers very strong, but who cannot play lightly. It is good for these people to practise Chopin's compositions, because these need to be played with a light touch, or they are spoilt.
Chopin in Britain.
All the latter part of his life poor
...Chopin had bad health.
He was consumptive. Once he went to London especially to consult some famous doctor. He did not want people to know he was there, so he called himself Mr. Fritz. But some ladies who persuaded him to play to them guessed who it must be.
Then, in 1848, when he was thirty-nine years old, he went again. He used to be very fond of Broadwood's pianos and used to go to their shop in London to practise. But he was now so weak that, to save him exertion, some one in the shop would lift him up like a child and carry him up to the piano room.
