Composers of Chopin's own time, but above all those of the next generation, adapted the works of Chopin. In particular the mazurkas were much-desired material for transcriptions. The influence of Chopin on Polish composers was great, but internationally his influence also made itself felt. Schumann and Liszt were among the most important of Chopin's admirers, and unreservedly acknowledged his influence on their own work. This album means to illustrate the rich piano repertoire which in one way or another gives tribute to the work of the iconic piano composer Frederic Chopin, with the emphasis on works where the composer explicitly states that his Polish predecessor was the source of his inspiration.
