 * In the passages about the alleged affairs with Gladkowska and Wodzinska a more neutral wording should be found, and the quote by the spokesman of the Chopin-Institute should most necessarily be added, since he is confirming that there is no written evidence for these stories. It can be found in the SRF-Article.


 * Another quote by Chopin could be added in a new section about the mistranslations, the longly discussed quote including the „ideal“, where he also talks about the waltz and his love for Tytus. There a citation of the guardian-article should be added, since the translator D. Frick is quoted there saying, the ideal probably is Tytus.


 * In the sexuality-section, the citation from Sands letter should be re-added, since it is a reliable source. More reliable than a biographer or user reflecting about what she could have ment.


 * I could write these suggested parts by the day after tomorrow, monday evening, latest.


 * And in general, I agree with the contributions by Francis Schonken and François Robere about the reliability of media-sources.




 * Four boarders at his parents' apartments became Chopin's intimates or lovers, to all of whom he wrote letters filled with affection : Tytus Woyciechowski, Jan Nepomucen Białobłocki, Jan Matuszyński and Julian Fontana; the latter two would become part of his Paris milieu, they both lived together with him one after the other at Chaussée-d'Antin.

 * Research in this area also considered views of Chopin's other social contacts. It is dubious whether Chopin's relationship with George Sand had ever been physical. In a letter she already in June 1838 points out, that and how he abstained. And Sand claimed (not entirely reliably) that it ceased to be so after June 1839 until the end of their affair in 1847. Sand's daughter Solange, aged 13 at the time, referred to Chopin in 1842 as "Sexless" ("Sans-sexe"), although in later years she seemed to display affection for him herself.
