Chopin music recalls poem

You play for instance The Piano Concerto No. 1 in E minor, Op. 11, by Frédéric Chopin.
These soundtrack of my life and may recall to memories like some ancient tide. Maybe I´am a rock/blues man. But! (i have changed).
Is not wrong to say he was the poet of the piano.
That same sense of refinement and delicacy that we experience in listening to a sympathetic rendering of his best works is just what every one who met Chopin seems to have found to be his characteristics as a man.
He liked having fine, neat clothes; he liked flowers always in his rooms; he disliked smoking. These are details upon which we may found. Nobody knew him better than George Sand, and her description is therefore worth quoting.

Gentle, sensitive, and very lovely, he united the charm of adolescence with the suavity of a more mature age; through the want of muscular development he retained a peculiar beauty, and exceptional physiognomy, which, if we may venture so to speak, belonged to neither age nor sex. It was like the ideal creations with which the poetry of the Middle Ages adorned the Christian temples. The delicacy of his constitution rendered him interesting in the eyes of women. The full yet grateful cultivation of his mind, the sweet and captivating originality of his conversation, gained for him the attention of the most enlightened men, whilst those less highly cultivated liked him for the exquisite courtesy of his manners.

Frans Liszt who knew him well, and did much to help him forward in his early public career:

His blue eyes were more spirituals than dreamy; his bland smile never writhed into bitterness. The transparent delicacy of his complexion pleased the eye; his fair hair was soft and silky; his nose slightly aquiline; his bearing so distinguished, and his manners stamped with such high breeding, that involuntarily he was always treated like a prince. His gestures were many and graceful; the tones of his voice veiled, often stifled. His stature was low, his limbs were slight.

These quotations can help us to understand something little about the nature of the man: they show us also how intimate is the connection between what may be called the external Chopin and one can say: the internal as exhibited in his works.
