But he spent most of his life in Paris. His concerts were attractive events in Parisian society. In spite of the great success as a performer, he couldn't be free from financial problems because he was ill-treated by the publishers. Moreover, he suffered all his life from pains of bronchitis, pneumonia, and tuberculosis. Poland mourned for his premature death at the age of 39.
