*This time Emilia finds mysterious letters hidden in a crack under the floor* Hmm... What is it? Whooa, more letters from Frycek to Tytus! To read or not to read, umm... *hesitates a bit, but curiosity wins again. She opens the envelopes one by one and begins to read*

"As always, I carry your letters with me. How good it will be when I take out your letter and make sure that you love me. Or at least look at the handwriting and the hand of the one I can only love."

*gasps* It's true what people saying!

"Now give me a kiss, the most affectionate one – F. Chopin. One more kiss – a kiss! But have mercy and write a word sometimes, or even half a letter, even a letter, and it will be dear to me."

Fuj! they wanted to kiss again! *winces, but continues reading anyway*

"How many times do I take night for day and day for night; how many times I live in a dream and sleep during the day, worse as if I were sleeping, because I always feel; and instead of gaining strength in this intoxication, as if in a dream, I still feel I am tired and weak - please, love me."

...

"I'm going to wash myself, don't kiss me now, because I haven't washed myself yet. - You? Even if I smeared myself with Byzantine oils, you wouldn't kiss me. There is some force in nature. Today you will dream that you are kissing me. I have to pay you back for the horrible dream you gave me last night."

...Boże, now I'm going to have nightmares. *hurriedly hides the letters where they were*

My best friend, Tytus Woyciechowski, fought in the 1830 November Uprising as a second lieutenant in the Polish army. After seeing combat, he was decorated with the IV class of the Virtuti Militari, the Golden Cross. He was one among 1.794 others awarded this medal for their heroism and courage.

"Wesoły jestem zewnątrz, szczególnie między swoimi (swoimi nazywam Polaków), ale w środku coś mnie morduje — jakieś przeczucia, niepokoje, sny albo bezsenność — tęsknota — obojętność — chęć życia, a w moment chęć śmierci — jakiś słodki pokój, jakieś odrętwienie, nieprzytomność umysłu, a czasem dokładna pamięć mnie dręczy. Kwaśno mi, gorzko, słono, jakaś szkaradna mieszanina uczuć mną miota! Głupszym niż kiedy."

— Fryderyk Chopin w liście do Tytusa Woyciechowskiego, Paryż, 25 grudnia 1831 r.

#Frederic Chopin #fryderyk chopin #Tytus Wojciechowski #Tytus Woyciechowski #Piano #ovid's metamorphoses #Orpheus and Eurydice #francesca and paolo #George Frederic Watts #Chopin's letters #A little tribute because these two have made me so so sad #Because as Chopin's life ended Tytus' was only beginning #Post 1850 he was so active in society and politics my God it made me tired to read #Do you think he read the published letters from Chopin and finally realized how bonkersly different in tone those written to him were??#And he'd probably chosen the least incriminating ones #Like don't think I don't notice the huge gap between the Tytus letters #Anyway if he hadn't given those letters to be published we'd never know their contents at all because the originals were all lost #Also they apparently wrote a piano duet together???#Tytus had an entire collection of Chopin memorabilia????#And they were all destroyed by either the Russians‚ the Nazis‚ or when Tytus' house was set on fire #Also they had matching pantalons #Dudes you two were insane #I love that energy #Get you a man who will have a matching musical instrument with you

I tell my piano the things I would have once told you.

Fryderyk Chopin, in a letter to Tytus Woyciechowski on October 3, 1829

secret context:

This is probably the most famous Chopin quote of them all, to the point that it's on the verge of cliche. The notion that this teenager (he's 19 here) with his extraordinary musical destiny would be confiding in his piano as if to a friend is super compelling. BUT there's another reason why I find it satisfying, and for that I give you the extended passage, Polish and all:

Nie uwierzysz, jak dla mnie teraz Warszawa smutna; gdyby nie to, że familia mi uprzyjemnia, to bym nie wysiedział. – A jak to przykro nie mieć pójść do kogo rano, podzielić z nim smutku, radości; jak to niegodziwie, kiedy coś cięży, a nie ma gdzie złożyć. Wiesz, do czego ta aluzja. Fortepianowi gadam to, co bym tobie był nieraz powiedział.

You wouldn't believe how depressing Warsaw is to me now; if it weren't for my family cheering me up, I wouldn't be able to stand it. -- How miserable it is not to have someone to go to in the morning, to share with him the sadness, the joy; how wicked it is when something weighs on you, and you have nowhere to lay it down. You know to what I allude. I tell my piano the things I would have once told you.

Yes go ahead and enjoy, it's lovely.

the thing is, historians have interpreted this as: poor Chopin is feeling stifled in Warsaw after his big trip abroad (he'd been to Vienna recently) :'( now he can't wait to leave again and go to a proper european city like Paris or Vienna where he'll finally be able to make real art for real :'( :'(

but the thing is, the only thing Chopin finds "depressing" about Warsaw is specifically that his bff/maybe secret boyfriend, to whom he is writing this letter, is not in it anymore. so while a 100 years worth of historians are trying hard to west-ify him, our boy is over here just telling a man he misses him. hero.

What you would do if u could be locked in a room with tytus for an whole day?

Well, I… firstly I would hug him desperately and tell him how much I had missed him.

Then we could sit together and eat and drink, play games, read… if there were a piano, I could play for him. In the nighttime, when everything is quiet and perfect, I would take his hand in mine and reminisce about our childhood. We could talk until we fell asleep, just as we used to in the attic rooms...

Really, we wouldn’t have to do much. Tycio’s company was — and is — the thing I value most.
