CHOPIN
- Nocturne No 2 in E Flat Major Op 9 No 2 (60 minutes)
Performer
: Frank Levy
The
Nocturnes, Op. 9 are a set of three nocturnes written by Frédéric Chopin
between 1830 and 1832, published that year, and dedicated to Madame Emily
Chopin. The second nocturne of the work is widely regarded as Chopin's most
famous piece, and is regularly featured in films, television programs and video
games. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nocturn...
The
Chopin nocturnes constitute 21 pieces for solo piano written by Frédéric Chopin
between 1827 and 1846. They are generally considered among the finest short
solo works for the instrument and hold an important place in contemporary
concert repertoire. Although Chopin did not invent the nocturne, he popularized
and expanded on it, building on the form developed by Irish composer John
Field.
The
nocturnes numbered 1 to 18 were published during his life, in twos or threes,
in the order of composition. Numbers 19 and 20 were actually written first,
prior to Chopin's departure from Poland, but published posthumously. Number 20
was not originally entitled "nocturne" at all, but since publication
in 1870 as such, is generally included with publications and recordings of the
set. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nocturn...
