Which of the following is NOT true of Frédéric Chopin?

Frédéric Chopin is often referred to as the "King of the Piano" due to his profound influence on piano composition and performance, as well as the virtuosic nature of his works. However, this title is not universally recognized in the same way other titles for composers may be; for instance, "King of the Piano" might be more commonly used in informal contexts rather than as an official designation.

Chopin is primarily celebrated for his contributions to piano music, including nocturnes, waltzes, and etudes, which showcase a unique emotional depth and technical mastery. He is less known for orchestral compositions, having written only a few works for orchestra, which makes the notion that he composed extensively for orchestra misleading. His impact on the Romantic era is evident, as he indeed influenced a number of composers with his innovative approaches to harmony and form.

Understanding the context of Chopin’s work helps clarify why the other statements hold true and reinforces his position as a key figure in the world of piano composition, while the title "King of the Piano" does not accurately reflect his recognition across all musical communities or contexts.
