Manuscript in Dreams - Study of Chopin (Paperback)

A work of beautiful lyrical and musical accents written in Chopin's voice, Manuscript in Dreams/Study of Chopin, sheds light on highly meaningful moments and aspects of the composer's life and work. The author has knowledgeably threaded together "manuscripts that appeared to her in dreams..." an ensemble of intimate pieces subtly combined in an engaging kaleidoscope of memoir, narrative and poetry. A diversity of characters-George Sand, Clara Schumann, Heinrich Heine, Charles Halle, Eugene Delacroix...-parade through these pages and contribute to their remarkable immediacy, while a handful of poems offer a precise emotional counterpoint. As Lourdes Tomas says in her critical essay on the Spanish original, "In this splendid imaginary autobiography written by the Cuban born poet and writer Juana Rosa Pita, the poet of the piano is rendered as musician of words." The publication coincides with the bicentennial of Chopin's birth: an original, heartfelt homage to an unrivaled composer.
