An inspiring discourse on the power of music from one of the twentieth century's most important figures, Andr Gide Andr Gide, one of the great intellectuals of the twentieth century and a devoted pianist, invites readers to reevaluate Fr d ric Chopin as a composer "betrayed . . . deeply, intimately, totally violated" by a music community that had fundamentally misinterpreted his work. As a profound admirer of Chopin's "promenade of discoveries," Gide intersperses musical notation throughout the text to illuminate his arguments, but most moving is Gide's own poetic expression for the music he so loved.
