Poet of the Piano

Posted on September 25th, 2007 in Readings music processing

Notes were his words
Ivories were his tools
Music was his poetry

Chopin the poet of the piano
My greatest champion of classical music
His music never fails to entrance me

So What’s all this about? I just read the biography of Chopin and i’m quite moved by this truly artistic pianist of his time. All along i felt it in his music and after reading this i feel even more so. This realtime graphic is dedicated to him, inspired by his raindrop prelude. If you have a mic connected to your com, play a song and watch it react to the song. If you play the piano , play the raindrop prelude along with it :) . You need java though.
