200th Birthday of a musical genius

[Brown, Jon Brow]

Yesterday was the 200th Birthday of not Bruce Forsyth, but Frederic Chopin. In my view the greatest piano composer to ever live.

I find it a bit creepy that I started to learn his Nocturne in E flat yesterday, unaware of his birthday celebrations.

Go on then, as nobody else has bothered ... and even though I prefere Debussy ... Happy Birthday old boy :)

When's the decomposing joke?
