Pianist Tom Yun reveals Chopin’s hidden creation
Discovered in New York from a collection acquired by the Morgan Library & Museum in 2019, this Chopin waltz has sparked great excitement in the music world.
Performing his rendition of the piece is Tom Yun, a piano prodigy and winner of multiple awards born in 2001.
In May, library curator Robinson McClellan uncovered a handwritten manuscript while examining archived collections. Experts are now engaged in a heated debate over its authenticity, pondering if it is an original piece by Chopin or a simple reproduction of his musical style.
Despite ongoing skepticism, the rediscovery of this work, unpublished for nearly a century, offers an exciting opportunity to unveil the vastness of Chopin's extraordinary talent.
