Chopin

I play a lot of Chopin’s music, and will be presenting my recorded performances of them here, including complete sets, starting with the complete Nocturnes, which I have already recorded. Look out for audio-videos, scores in flipbook format, quizzes, some discussions and opinions. I am working on a Members’ Forum, and possibly a Members’ Community section, where you can exchange your views and opinions with other members, and with my membership administrators. I shall try to join the conversation from time to time. You can also communicate with me and my small admin team using the email address given in the “Contact” section of this website.
