Ajoutée par magataganm, 10 Aoû 2018 Édouard Wolff (1816 - 1880) was a Polish pianist and composer and son of the famous doctor Józef Wolff and Eleonora Oestreicher. Wolff had the first piano lessons with his mother, an amateur pianist, and then studied from 1828 in Vienna with Wilhelm Würfel. After returning to Warsaw in 1832, he took private lessons with Joseph Elsner. In 1835 he went to Paris, where he first had contact with Frédéric Chopin, who introduced him to the Parisian musical society. Later there was an alienation between Chopin and him. Nevertheless, he dedicated two of his more than 300 piano pieces to Chopin: the Grand Allegro de Concert and Rêverie-Nocturne (Homage to Chopin). He also composed forty duos for piano and violin as well as a piano concerto.
