Excerpt from Chopin and Other Musical Essays Leipsic, the centre of the world's music trade, ex. Ports about one hundred thousand dollars' worth of music to America every year. I do not know how much of this sum is to be placed to the account of Chopin, but a leading music dealer in New York told me that he sold three times as many of Chopin's com positions as of any other romantic or classical com poser. This seems to indicate that Chopin is popu lar. Nevertheless, I believe that what Liszt wrote in 1850, a year after the death of Chopin - that his fame was not yet as great as it would be in the fut ure - is as true to-day as it was forty years ago. Chopin's reputation has been constantly growing, and yet many of his deepest and most poetic com positions are almost unknown to amateurs, not tc speak of the public at large. A few of his least characteristic pieces are heard in every parlor, gen erally in a wofully mutilated condition, but some of his most inspired later works I have never heard played either in private or in the concert hall.
