Chopin meets Pushkin - featuring Anna Fedorova

Anna Fedorova, piano and poem reciting Chopin, Waltz Op. 64 nr 2 -- Pushkin, "The Flower" 1828. -- "A flower — shriveled, bare of fragrance, Forgotten on a page — I see, And instantly my soul awakens, Filled with an aimless reverie: When did it bloom? the last spring? earlier? How long? Where was it plucked? By whom? By foreign hands? or by familiar? And why put here, as in a tomb? To mark a tender meeting by it? A parting with a precious one? Or just a walk, alone and quiet, In forests' shade? in meadows' sun? Is she alive? Is he still with her? Where is their haven at this hour? Or did they both already wither, Like this unfathomable flower?" -- If you wish to thank Anna, you can make a donation at: https://www.paypal.me/annafedorovapiano Become an "inspiration wanderer", "inspiration seeker", or "inspiration catcher" @:   / annafedorova   Recorded and filmed by Nicholas Santangelo Schwartz Sony A7III, Nikon d5100, Schoeps MK2, mv88, zoom h5
