Chopin was such a virtuoso piano player that he caused hysteria in females. Also historical fact that he had big ol hands, just read his music
Edit: Liszt, he was the one, not Chopin. Chopin was sickly and died very young, thank you for the history lessons
Wrong, that was Liszt, that's where Lisztomania comes from. Liszt is also the one with the big hands, he's the reason modern pianos have harps in the back of them, because he would play so hard they'd break under the strain of the cumulative resonance created by the strings, because of the speed at which Liszt would play. Chopin was gay.
Maybe bi but not gay. He had a relationship with George Sand, a woman.
You are absolutely right, I stand corrected. I think I conflated the two at some point and have actually never been corrected until now
No worries, they did meet during their careers. Liszt got all the girls, then actually went on and became a priest after he retired from music. He did have 3 daughters though. One of which would go on to become Richard Wagner's second wife. So, it's not even 6 degrees of separation.
