Celebrate the haunting beauty of Frédéric Chopin’s music through the lens of exile, identity, and artistic longing.

Internationally renowned pianist Emmanuel Despax takes centre stage in this richly evocative program tracing Chopin’s emotional and musical journey as an émigré in 19th century Paris. Though he found fame and fortune in the City of Light, Chopin remained a man caught between worlds; Polish at heart, yet deeply embedded in the Parisian artistic elite.
