Yes, his music is beautiful and has pure soul, but many other composers have these qualities too, yet almost all female pianists went full on frenzy on Chopin’s pieces, on the contrary the holes are rarely into Bach, Rachmaninoff, etc.

Always finish on ze Bach, never finish on Debussy.

Chopin had very long fingers, really tricky to play if you got small hands.

Because it is easily appreciable as frilly and romantic and elegant and emotive and sophisticated without requiring much technical savvy or interpretation or bearing through actively, like like someone like Liszt or Schumann would. Same for Beethoven to a lesser extent because he is a little bit more technical in general. Chopin is wonderful music in no way derided by the fact it is easier but this is why.

They have a faggit on the piano, Steve; do not be fooled by that type of faggitry.
>>
>>534468445
This. You get a lot of bang for your buck both in terms of listenability for the audience as well as satisfaction relative to skill. It's why Mendelssohn is similarly popular for string ensemble work as well as his concertos. They don't require much, relatively speaking, of either the performer or listener but provide a great deal of satisfaction for both. In contrast to, for example, Wieniawski.

I would not recommend, doing that on a piano, it is not good for your organs, I hope you do not have intestinal parasites.

THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ME! Not him...

I feel like this was all British entertainment before 1900

I think you should separate "female" into two groups: the conservatory/musically trained ones, and the "just listen to a bit of classical music" ones.
I've been through conservatory and I've seen women definitely into a lot more interesting things than Chopin. French impressionism I think must have been the top one. But now that you say it, I don't remember any of them except one that ever showed actual interest in Bach for example. But all guys know he's God tier of course. As for Rachmaninoff I was the most interested in it.
Now for non musically trained women, they probably like Chopin because it's way more famous in normies circles than Bach's fugues or Rach's Etudes-Tableaux. If you show them the very cheesy "romantic" parts of Rachmaninoff, they love it just the same as Chopin. But they'd recoil at anything a bit more esoteric or serious. But isn't that just a normie thing ?

>>534468183
damn nice hole he has
>>
>>534468183
Still better than all the male pianists who mostly play their gay anime theme-songs or whatever. The only classical pieces they want to learn are pieces like Moonlight Sonata 3rd mov. or La Campanella, some Fantaisie Impromptu. The only students I've so far had who've brought up composers like Grieg, Sjostakovitj, Skrjabin etc. are women.

>>534468219
Heh.
>>
>>534468183
what little Chopin I've heard doesn't sound technically difficult
>>
>>534468445
Chopin is easy, get off the grass, he's one of the hardest to learn. I think OP's is wrong too.
>>
>>534469698
This. Especially if we're talking about his etudes.
>>
>>534468183
Chinks love Chopin as well. What's up with OP image

>>534468183
Cute

A thread about the final boss of Eternal Sonata?
I played that on the Xbox 360

From the listeners perspective it's Chopin is what the masses like. You have to grow into Bach, Bach enjoyers are usually older people while Chopin is something that kids/teenagers would appreciate more.

From the pianists perspective many treat Bach as boring exercises and never grow out of their Chopin/hopeless romantic teenager/whatever you want to call it phase. Because of the popularity, Chopin concerts are also guaranteed money makers, that's why you see more of it on youtube etc.

Objectively speaking Chopin is peak classical piano.
>t. Classically trained pianist
>>
>>534468183
Chopin is a brainlet-tier composer.

>ch*pin is greater than Liszt, Schumann or even Brahms even when it solely comes to Piano
>"""trained pianist"""

>>534468183
just leaving a post before it gets 404ed
op is gay
>>534468423
he also had 12 fingers
>>
>>534468183
Chopin is classical yet contemporary
Bach is too rigid and classical
Rachmaninoff is too russian
>>
>>534470598
>>ch*pin is greater than Liszt, Schumann or even Brahms even when it solely comes to Piano
Yes. Opinions of plebs who don't even know how to play henle 6+ pieces discarded. (I highly doubt you play piano at all)
>>
>>534468423
>Chopin had very long fingers
This is a common myth, we actually have a gips of his hands and they're average sized
>>
>>534470746
Professional pianists only play ch*pin for marketing reasons, it's because brainlets who know absolutely nothing about classical music want to listen to ch*pin, not because that he's a great composer.
Just Brahms 2 piano concertos mog everything that polish nigger ever wrote. And note that Brahms true genius was in chamber music, not in piano works.

>>534470729
Bach is baroque

Holy seethe
Why am I even arguing with a turdworlder like you

>>534470944
Unfathomable how anyone can actually be this stupid. Or maybe not, since you are, after all, a brown turd.
>>
>>534471317
ch*pin is literally the v*valdi of the Romantic era. He's just marketable and accessible for brainlets like (You).
>>
>>534471304
Here is an Irish composer you never even heard of composed ch*pin nocturnes before ch*pin himself.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uktj2MYSsaU
Here is your """genius""", brainlet. Even his best work was stolen.
