"Woman: Shared Sensibilities, A Collective Voice for Equality"
Who is this young, fearless pianist? Who is this Polish composer who is using music to transcend its power? Who is this star that turns the heads of all Parisians? They refer to him as Chopin. The most romantic character of opulent Parisian evenings, he is the buzz of the town. Chopin realizes his days are running out when his lungs begin to hemorrhage. His sole concentration is composing. He is driven to transform music by the passing of time.
ಈ ನಿರ್ಭೀತ ತರುಣ ಪಿಯಾನೋ ವಾದಕ ಯಾರು? ಸಂಗೀತದ ಶಕ್ತಿಯನ್ನ ಮೀರಿಸಲು ಸಂಗೀತವನ್ನೇ ಬಳಸುತ್ತಿರುವ ಈ ಪೋಲಿಷ್ ಸಂಯೋಜಕ ಯಾರು? ಪ್ಯಾರಿಸ್ ನಗರದ ಜನರ ಗಮನ ಸೆಳೆಯುತ್ತಿರುವ ಈ ತಾರೆ ಯಾರು? ಅವನನ್ನು ಚೋಪಿನ್ ಎಂದು ಕರೆಯುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಶ್ವಾಸಕೋಶದಲ್ಲಿ ರಕ್ತಸ್ರಾವ ಶುರುವಾದಾಗ, ಚೋಪಿನ್ಗೆ ತನ್ನ ಕೊನೆಯ ದಿನಗಳು ಹತ್ತಿರವಾಗುತ್ತಿವೆ ಎಂಬ ಅರಿವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಕಾಲದ ಹರಿವಿನೊಂದಿಗೆ ಸಂಗೀತವನ್ನು ರೂಪಾಂತರಿಸುವ ಪ್ರಯತ್ನದಲ್ಲಿ - ಅವನ ಸಂಪೂರ್ಣ ಗಮನ ಸಂಗೀತ ರಚನೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕೇಂದ್ರೀಕೃತವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ.
