For any visitor to Warsaw, it does not take long to realize that Frederic Chopin is everywhere. Schools, streets and even the international airport are named after him. Hundreds of people turn up every summer for free Chopin concerts in a Warsaw park, beneath a towering statue of the man himself.
    People often assume that Chopin was French he spent half his life in France and is buried there in the famous Pere Lachaise cemetery in Paris.
    But for many Poles, Chopin is the embodiment of their nation’s spirit. When they listen to his mazurkas and polonaises, they hear not only the strains of Polish folk music, but also nostalgia and patriotism for his homeland.
    Former Minister of Culture Waldemar Dabrowski is adamant about Chopin’s legacy.
    Chopin taught us what it means to be a patriot, he says, and he symbolizes what Poles want to achieve in shaping our culture today.
    This year marks the 200th anniversary of Chopin’s birth, and the Polish parliament has declared 2010 to be the official Year of Chopin.
    Stanislaw Leszczynski of the Warsaw-based Chopin Institute is helping organize the year-long events. He says that even during Chopin’s lifetime, he was the best ambassador of Polish culture, and remains so to this day.
    On March 1, Warsaw unveiled a new state of the art—Chopin museum. It features an innovative electronic information system, and the collection includes rare items like Chopin’s last piano and his passport.
