Успехов! THE GREAT COMPOSERS' VISITS TO GREAT BRITAIN.

Many famous composers visited Great Britain. F. Chopin and P.I. Tchaikovsky were among them.

Frederic Chopin is the great Polish pianist and composer. During his life he visited different countries, including Great Britain. He arrived in London on April 20th, 1848 at the invitation of his Scottish pupil and friend, Jane Stirling. During his stay in London Chopin was invited to play before Queen Victoria and met many of the leading figures of that time, including the novelist Charles Dickens and historian Thomas Carlyle. After London Chopin visited the homes of his Scottish friends. Then he travelled to Manchester where he took part in a public concert. After his return to London at the end of October 1848, his fatal illness advancing apace. He remained indoors for three whole weeks at his lodgings in St. Jame's Place - with the single exception of the evening of November 16th. On that day, in spite of his illness, he went to the Guilhall to play at a concert. He gave the ball in aid of his fellow-countrymen - polish refuges. It was the last time he ever played in public. He left London for Paris on November 23rd, promising to return the following year. That was not to be - F. Chopin died in Paris on October 17th, 1849.

As the result of the month, which Chopin spent in Britain the people of the country cherish many relics and souvenirs reminding the great pianist. The autographed manuscripts of Chopin's two most famous polonaises are in the British Museum, as well as other Chopin's autographs. In Manchester we may see the most treasured of the Chopin's relics in this country - the original death mask. In 1936 the mask was placed in the Henry Watson Music library in Manchester.

Petr Ilyich Tchaikovsky is a famous Russian composer. He first visited England in 1861. "London is very interesting", he wrote to his father in St. Petersburg, "but it makes a rather gloomy impression".

Twenty-seven years later Tchaikovsky arrived in London to begin his first foreign tour. His concerts were marked by the London press as an important event. In the following year he visited London again. His fourth and final visit was in the last year of his life. It was in 1893.

On the 50th anniversary of the Cambridge University Musical Society Tchaikovsky with the Norwegian composer Edward Grieg, the French composer Saint-Saens and some other European composers were elected as Doctors of Music on the morning of June 22, 1893, a symphony concert was held in Cambridge. The concert consisted of works by the composers, which were elected as Doctors of Music: Tchaikovsky wrote to his brother: "The concert went off brilliantly, that is to say, the unanimous opinion was that I had a real success".

In 1884 Tchaikovsky began to study English. Later he said that his progress was considerable and that he could easily read Dickens in the original. Knowledge of English helped him to communicate with the English people during his trips to England.
