Biography

Since 1927 the Frederic Chopin International Piano Competition has been held in Warsaw.

He constructed a resonant transformer, commonly known as the Tesla coil - one of his greatest inventions, which was presented in 1891.

He was so absorbed in teaching that he lost touch with reality. He didn't read newspapers, listen to radio news, or use the telephone.

According to the will, the heart extracted from Kosciuszko's body was placed in an urn and given to Emilia Zeltner, the daughter of Franz.

Chopin was buried at the Pere-Lachaise Cemetery to the sounds of Mozart's Requiem and his own Funeral March.

To combat inflation, he introduced a new gold coin, the solidus, which became the standard for Byzantine and European currencies for more than a thousand years.

For the sake of Chopin's health and life, as a cholera epidemic was spreading in Paris, his friends found an apartment in Chaillot for him.

Constantine I the Great was the initiator of many constructions, not only of a religious purpose.

The official purpose of this trip was to obtain confirmation that Turkey's European adversaries were ready to continue the war against the "enemy of the Lord's cross."

In 1995, a television adaptation of "Pride and Prejudice" - a miniseries starring Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth, was awarded an Emmy statuette.
