Strangely enough, when The Nocturnes are played well... I see visions in my mind of the salons (rooms) in which they might have first been played. I see the ladies' dress. I smell the candles and the leftover food and wine still in the air. I think Chopin learned some kind of secret of how to create pictures of things. And then transmit those pictures into sound/music. A few other composers can do this to varying degrees, but not like Chopin.
