Chopin - Nocturne in E Flat Major (Op. 9 No. 2)

[@ChandoraBox]

My piano teacher has been with me for 5 years and I'm moving out to college soon. I asked him that I wanted this piece to be a final goodbye and a thank you to him and all he's done for me. He said well work on it together and hopefully we'll get through it before I graduate and go to college. This has always been an emotional piece to me and I want it to be good final one.

I heard this playing when I was 4 years old. Sitting on my grand fathers bed as he died. I don't have any traumatic memories of that event. This music brings back the love in the room at that moment. He knew he was dying and asked for this to be played on his record player. It was peaceful. Although I don't have bad memories, it still brings a tear to my eye 50 years on. RIP Grand dad xx

With all the comments here, mine will surely be lost but here goes. Our senior class play (1957) featured music by Chopin. This particular work, played from a LP record, brings back memories like no other that played that night. Beautifully played here. Thank you from an 81 year old softie. BTW, the name of the play was Prelude. That's was the reason for Chopin's music.

[@rozconniwestsand7841]

The final chords just give a feeling of inevitable end, but of the beautiful kind. 4. It's played by the best pianist on KZbin, Rosseau.

[@mhtube01]

As someone who's learning this piece, any of you who want to learn it I can tell you this: it takes time and patience. I'd consider myself a decent piano player, I started playing when I was 6 years old and I'm now 28. However, I wasn't as consistent with practice growing up as I should have been and there was a period of years where I hardly played since I only had access to an electric keyboard. Now I have an Accoustic piano and it's great to try to learn this piece. If you are a serious player, the left hand part is arguably the hardest to learn in the beginning. If you practice frequently and consistently, you will get it down and unknowing memorize the music which is a HUGE help so you can focus on your hands instead of the music. At least for me, that was always a big advantage to memorizing music. Don't give up! If you need to walk away from it for a week or so, sometimes that actually helps. But just keep practicing.

[@nicolasgonzalez1927]

I know this is very old but thanks for the encouragement! It just happens I'm in the same boat as you. I studied the piano since I was 6 years old but...a lot of things happened and the last years I leaved it in the side, I´m 23 right now. This year I have more time in my hands so I wanted to come back and I was practicing for a while. Then I stumbled into this masterpiece, I always liked this song but for some reason I never learned it. So...it's really hard, and my long hiatus don't really help, but I will keep going until I get this right. Funny thing, I came to watch this video because I wanted to hear how it sounds, so yeah, memorizing helps a lot...

His work has an unbelievable characteristic to it that transcends the music itself.

This fits the vibe of someone sitting at a dimly lit bar, a man sits casually sipping at his beverage. Death physically emerges from a nearby door and steps out. He lays his skeletal, yet animate hand on the man's shoulder. He quietly utters in a deep yet smooth voice, "it's time to go now." the man then takes a picture of his family out of his pocket and glances one more time at it, a single tear falls onto the photograph and the man puts the photo back in his pocket. The duo exits the bar in a flare of smoke, never to be seen again.

I really wish the days we spent together could happen again. 3:54 I wiped my tears and smiled. I put flowers on her grave and turned around. Then I said "Don't worry about us. Sleep well, I love you," and I walked away.

This may be an answer to a question that wasn‘t asked but the reason for having such strong feelings when listening to this kind of music is Chopin and Rousseau. Chopin composed this incredible piece pouring his heart and soul into. Rousseau makes this memory on a piece of paper come to life! And we experience this blast of joy through our phone or computer. Im greatful to be alive

To those who aren’t that experienced with piano and wish to play this Nocturne, I will warn you that this piece is harder than it looks.

Don’t be discouraged though, cuz once you get to the point where you can play this Nocturne wonderfully, the payoff is more than worth it.

The Nocturnes, Op. 9 are a set of three nocturnes for solo piano written by myself between 1831 and 1832, published in 1832, and dedicated to Madame Marie Pleyel. These were my first published set of nocturnes. The second nocturne of the work is often regarded as my most famous piece.

Kind of a hot take after reading the comments: Tbh I find this piece is extremely difficult; not necessarily learning the notes, but the intricacies of phrasing, movement and the immense detail (especially in the left hand) to get every intonation correct, is very challenging (most people won’t be able to tell the difference, but high-level pianists can here is straight away). As a pianist for 10 years now, I still respect this piece as one of the most difficult (not technically but musically): I think an intermediate player can learn this pretty easily and play it, but playing it WELL is a different thing entirely

I remember walking in on the day before our school shutdown, it was a normal day all my friends and I messing around in ELA class. Hearing this song and telling my friends that I would look for it to do my ELA for those "2 weeks" later turning into months, resulting in my 7th grade year being lost. Activities we never got to do, projects we never finished, band concerts that we never even practiced for. Gone. As I'm writing this I tear up knowing I may never go back to my elementary school where I made all my friends, all these memories. Call me dramatic I just wish I could stay in 7th. I called it the worst year of my life, but truly it was the best. I'm now overwhelmed with anxiety of 8th grade, all these tests. I won't forget the smile and wave me and my friends did to each other before leaving. "See you in 2 weeks Camila!"
