"Chopin remained close to his fellow Poles in exile as friends and confidants and he never felt fully comfortable speaking French. Chopin's biographer Adam Zamoyski writes that he never considered himself to be French, despite his father's French origins, and always saw himself as a Pole."

Amazing guitarist, all of you. Thank you for sharing your talents.

Chopin is very well appreciate in France but is not french though his father branch was french ... Then, this father had a polish destiny !!! He was a peasant's son born in Lorraine, at Marainville-sur-Madon; his education was provided by the Weydlich family, nobles of Polish origin who returned to their country in 1787 accompanied by the teenager ! Frederic Chopin was mostly Polish and composed a typical East countries music. He made all his studies in the high school of Warsaw in Poland, and also the first years of his career in Poland and Austria. He was born in Żelazowa Wola, and his mother was Polish, Tekla Justyna Krzyżanowska , a gentry family from Sujawai ... Whatever he was in love with Georges Sand after, (Aurore Dupin), it didn' t changed his fundamental nature ! Chopin's sensitivity, personality and original identity are Polish. The French have never composed like him./

[@carlosmanueldiaz531]

Totally agree but the Chopin's career success was in France. Like Picasso, Falla and many others cases, the fame and recognition of his work we owe it to them. Along very much time for to have succeed in arts was neccessary have to pass throught Paris.

[@albertfrancois2316]

Ferran Talarn plays so good, no theater neither artifice, on a well balanced guitar ! One of the rare real french pieces in your list !

[@albertfrancois2316]

Cyprien N'tsai is a absolute master, the soul of music, also when he plays L'hymne à l'amour. Tears !

[@klaasbil8459]

I was curious about French guitar music, "only" to find out that these are transcriptions of pieces originally for piano (or other, but not guitar). The quotation marks around only serve to indicate that I am pleasantly surprised as to how well these work out. Truly enjoyable! EDIT: My first statement only applies to the first part of the video

[@gregorysavage7527]

A great compilation which makes me happy to have stopped playing. Listening is easier and more fun. Eternal gratitude to those who can do what I can't.

[@samuelgabison853]

chills everytime I hear all of these

[@jasonneugebauer5310]

This video illustrates the absolute perfection of the Siccas Guitars. Makes me want to listen to the beautiful sound all day regardless of the artist. I enjoyed some of the artists' style a lot, and others less, but I appreciate all of their uniqueness and dedication. For me, it would be great to hear more under-appreciated music. Some of the music I have heard many many times. Very Respectfully, Jason D. Neugebauer,

Superb guitar playing and excellent guitars …beautiful Melodie’s!!!

So much French music, playable on Guitar, for which this was an opportunity to showcase. Debussy, Ravel, Faure, etc. But no, we have Chopin.

Yep, Chopin is polish ...

I thought Chopin was Polish

[@tomphillips6743]

@Konstantin Ridaya yeah I guess that makes sense. It’s like how people call Handel a British composer even though he started in Germany

[@albertfrancois2316]

Sure, body and soul ! Even a father born in France, absolutely Polish !

[@questionreality6003]

was polished, silly

[@SaulG2137]

Chopin is a Polish composer....

[@redtruck3020]

I know it is the way she’s play. It’s the way you play the cello.

[@Nickels53]

I adore Chopin but I'm not sure how he fits into the category of French guitar music. Could someone explain this to me in a not mean way please? I'm genuinely curious.

[@Rovinman]

Why do the credits, NOT keep pace with the players ?It keeps on des ribing it as Mareusz Kowalski playi g Chopin Mazurks , Oous 7 No. 4

[@James-mk8jp]

Anyone know what guitar he's playing with at 28:00?

[@gabrielsroka]

It's in the description: 1984 José Luis Romanillos Classical

[@quanlethienminh6002]

lmao ... categorizing Chopin's Mazurkas as French is really a stretch too much :-)

[@Elias-rl1ty]

Chopin?

[@albertfrancois2316]

Yes, nothing french anymore in Fredrich Chopin . lol🤣😇🤪A real polish soul !

[@claudiosolaresMMX]

You wish Chopin had been born in France...

[@leandrobastos6962]

Half the songs are by a polish, respect people's cultural heritages.

[@bk9464]

Moitié français moitié polonais merci

[@profzvezdochkin5739]

Since when Chopin became French? He is as much French, as Ukraine is an "independent democratic country" and Zelensky regime is a "democracy"))

[@gtrmusic69]

This is not French guitar music. Matter of fact only a handful of pieces are French at all.

[@albertfrancois2316]

Sure, only Sati and Debussy, the rest is not French, Polish or Spain soul !

[@albertfrancois2316]

​@Konstantin Ridaya Anyway, his music was absolutely not french, but Polish essentially, with a fragrance of Austria and Prussia ! French people do not consider him as french composer, not at all, though we love him ! Only a fake of business interests ! He was a real soul of Warsaw ! Not an atom of french cultural heritage in it ! Even his father grew in a nobility Polish surrounding, though he was a peasant's son !

[@googiwaumer]

@@albertfrancois2316 Couperin and de Vise too, but yes, your point is well taken. What is Chopin doing here?

[@wowgitara]

13:22 It is not french music and guitar music. It is Polish music . Fryderyk Szopen was born in Poland and he wrote many great compositions on piano, not guitar.

[@wowgitara]

Where Fryderyk Szopen Was born? Żelazowa Wola, Poland. He came to France when he was 21 years old, after composing 2 piano concerts- e-minor and f-minor. He wasn`t french!!! He was Pole!!!

[@albertfrancois2316]

@@wowgitara Sure !

[@albertfrancois2316]

@Konstantin Ridaya Thus, stop to write the same details, we are not stupid and we all know history !!! We all love so much Chopin, but he was a great Polish soul ! The rest is a fake of business in France society ! And whatever she wrote, Georges Sand was a lost woman: And most of all, she agreed with the so called republican government of Thiers, to kill in mass 30 000 people in paris, ( men, women children) who had the legitimacy to create the commune in 1971, when french army betrayed France in 1870 ( High bourgeoisie took power ... and still keep it !) !!!! I would tell, Chopin lost his way in such a couple !

[@gianlucabarragato4594]

Chopin IS NOT FRENCH MUSIC!!

[@mistermac4]

This is a MASSIVE disappointment!! Apart from the pieces by De Fossa, everything is an arrangement from piano works. What about the ORIGINAL pieces by Milhaud, Poulenc, Tailleferre. and Auric - not to mention the contemporary non-members of Les Six like Roussel and Ibert? Then we have the huge contribution by Sauget and Jean Francaix, not to mention the works by eminent performer-composers like Ida Presti., or even Francis Kleynjans This kind of collection perpetuates the MYTH that the guitar has been ignored by real composers, and is just a little, pale imitation piano!

[@tomphillips6743]

I’ll have to check out all those composers now. I had no idea (aside from Poulenc and Presti) that they wrote for guitar. Do you have any recommended pieces to start with?

[@mistermac4]

@@tomphillips6743 Le Tournoi and Fantasie Symphonique (dedicated to Berlioz) and also La source du Lyson by Napoleon Coste - a major French Romantic guitarist and composer. Those members of Les Six who tried, only wrote one piece each - of which, the most dramatic is "Segovia" by Darius Milhaud. Similarly, Roussel wrote only his Op.29 waltz for solo guitar. Otto Tolonen plays about fifteen minutes of this music on a KZbin video, including the pieces by Tailleferre and Samazeuilh. Henri Sauget has his splendid Soliloque, and the exquisite miniatures called Musiques pour Claudel, while Jean Francaix composed a fine Suite, as well as a Divertissement for two guitars, songs, and also a concerto for guitar and string orchestra. Perhaps the most challenging composer is Maurice Ohana, whose music - like the relatively well- known Tiento - is best played on ten strings. There's so much good stuff, it's a shame to miss it!

[@mistermac4]

@Konstantin Ridaya I think you've misunderstood. I'm not whining. I'm lambasting the guitarist "community" for their woeful ignorance of their own repertoire, and their awareness of music outside of their little guitar solo bubble! If you really think that Milhaud and Poulenc are only known in France, then you're proving this point. As many have noted here, Szopen was a Polish composer, and it IS a bit embarrassing that so many arrangements of his piano pieces should appear in the video. I have noted a few works for consideration above, they are worth hearing

[@tomphillips6743]

@@mistermac4 thanks I’ll give them all a listen!

[@mistermac4]

@Konstantin Ridaya we're on the same wavelength here! And the nocturnes of Field are well worth exploring

[@wouterspaans7103]

Let's keep Eric Satie for the piano. That's dreadful enough. Please not on guitar.
