What's the longest amount of time this place has gone without a Chopin post or question or reply to existing Chopin post or question.
-
Chopin posts here? :o

I may be mistaken but I thought I saw one or two. I would also ask include replies to non-Chopin posts or questions with answers including Chopin

Although that is just as interesting a question as it would be to study the frequency of Bach posts, I think you would have to make the calculations yourself...most of us are busy practicing our Chopin :P

Don't really get the point of this post but I have just one word to say; OCEAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mhm mhm. I do not think math skills are up to par, as I am sure the amount of time between Chopin posts is such a large number.
As for Bach, I don't think 5 minutes go by without a post asking to rank how hard a piece of Bach's is or asking what Bach piece to learn next or asking if based on current level are they ready for a Bach piece or someone writing about how much they love Bach and everything Bachy

Um, Chopin is an extremely popular classical composer. Therefore, he gets mentioned on this forum at least ten times a day?

Visitor was probably just having fun with all the Chopin worship ;D

I just realized Chopin looks a lot like Tim Roth.

Not a Chopin worshipper. Perhaps it is because when I took lessons as a kid, my piano teacher 'used' his work as 'punishment' for when I came to her home, unprepared for my lesson.
I'm not sure if she hated Chopin, or wanted me to hate Chopin. She succeeded at the latter.
Posting on this site this evening, is dredging up bad memories of why I loathe certain composers to this day. I should consider this therapy. ;D

What the fruit is wrong with her? Why would she do that?! >:(
Some people can "know" piano and should not be allowed to teach.
What a b * tch!

I know. I read your reply here and thinking back to all that, I just want to cry. To this day, I struggle to play certain composers because of her. In the grand scheme of life, it is not a big deal but she hurt my desire to want to take music to another level. The irony is, I think she treated me that way because she didn't like her own life choices. As a kid at the time, I just did what she expected of me, but looking back...she was an unhappy person. An incredibly talented pianist but not a patient teacher.
But she thought I should pursue music as a profession...and was disappointed when after years of lessons and I was a teenager, I didn't want her dream.
That's the irony. She caused me a lot of angst that I think had it been different, and not such a harsh way of teaching, I might have stuck with music more than a hobby into my adulthood.
I haven't really thought about all this in so long. :(
When I was out of high school my family moved away from that town where she lived, and I trained for a state competition with an entirely new instructor. He was very different and believed in me. I wish I had met him when I just started lessons as I wouldn't have stupid hang ups with certain composers as I do now. :(
Sorry I went off topic, but thx for listening!

No prob, I can't understand why someone would want to do that. Her life must've been really messed up

I'm guessing you're fairly new to Pianostreet, and have not lurked significantly before you registered. :P

Having perused your other posts, I concede that my conjecture was baseless and invalid.
