肖邦国际钢琴比赛堪称音乐界的奥运会，它是世界上最有名、最严格、级别最高的钢琴比赛之一，每5年在波兰首都华沙举办一次，至今已有70多年的历史。它不仅记载着现代钢琴家们的年少风华，更是二十世纪钢琴演奏史不朽传奇的见证。第一次世界大战后，肖邦的音乐被世俗气息曲解成靡靡之音，甚至连专业音乐院校都不愿意再将肖邦的作品作为教学曲目。在这样的情况下，波兰的钢琴家和音乐教育者们决定举办“肖邦国际钢琴比赛”以发扬肖邦的音乐精神，并发掘出优秀的肖邦音乐诠释者。“肖邦国际钢琴比赛”的举办的确得到了令人瞩目的成果，从大赛早期前前苏联和波兰钢琴家以技巧和音乐相抗，到二战后毛里齐奥·波里尼、玛莎·阿格里奇、弗拉基米尔·阿什肯纳齐与伊沃·波格雷里奇等一系列当今最走红的钢琴大家的横空出世，“肖邦国际钢琴比赛”已经成为国际钢琴家的摇篮。半个世纪以来，肖邦国际钢琴比赛不仅成为世界最重要的钢琴大赛之一，也以其严格的评审标准还原肖邦及其作品应有的形象。而八十年代波格雷里奇在大赛中出色演奏却未入选总决赛，致使评委阿格里奇红颜大怒、拂袖而去一事，不但造就了波格雷里奇个人另辟蹊径的神话，更为肖邦国际钢琴比赛再添一丝传奇色彩。 （zt)
