F. Chopin - Nocturne in A flat major Op. 32 no. 2 - analysis - Greg Niemczuk's lecture

[@xman_hall]

the introduction and ending to this piece is arguably the prettiest most sublime few seconds of piano of all time regardless of piece or composer. every time i hear it, it’s SO welcoming and warm. the feeling i get is indescribable.

[@gregniemczuk]

Very interesting thesis! Thank you so much for this! I agreed it's sooooo special

[@enyamendez6355]

I always wanted to learn to play the piano. Your analysis help me understand why Chopin makes me feel what I feel when listening to his pieces and also understand more about the beautiful and complex world of music. Thank you for your incredible work!

[@mediumsizedgrape]

It makes me happy knowing there is someone out there who loves Chopin as much as you do. The way you characterize his music points to a deep understanding.

Wow you’re genius! Opening book! Closing book! I didn’t notice that! I’d like to play this nocturne! Thanks Greg !

[@gregniemczuk]

Thank you!!!

[@inigodiazderabago9254]

Almost there!

[@manchildx277]

This is beautiful music. Thank you for helping us understand it. I can play op72 no1, but this nocturne’s sheet music scares me.

[@gregniemczuk]

Yes, especially the middle part is scary .. I'm going to record it soon. It needs to be practiced hands separately a lot!

[@israellopez-lazaro5846]

After this video I've made up my mind to go forward and learn this beautiful piece. Will you be talking about Chopin's Op. 69 No.1 Waltz in the future? I know that one also has a connection to Maria Wodzińska

[@gregniemczuk]

Yes it has! But this year I only make videos about pieces published during Chopin's life. I'll try to make the video about this Waltz next year.

[@Ezekiel_Pianist]

@@gregniemczuk that is such a shame I love that waltz but I admire your goal to do an analysis on every work published during Chopins life this year :)

[@ЕлизаветаЗябрева]

Dear Greg! After your inspiring interpretation, let me offer my story. Date story. Morning, timid dreams of meeting a loved one (a), heart and soul rush to meet (movement in part b) and joy flows like a river from an open heart at a meeting, love sounds in full voice (part c)! I so wanted to play this nocturne!

[@gregniemczuk]

So beautiful!!!!

[@ЕлизаветаЗябрева]

@@gregniemczuk my own story and feelings))/

[@akbarkazimakis6]

Ja czasem oglądam pana analizy utworów które nie gram i i tak bardzo dużo się uczę.

[@gregniemczuk]

Bardzo się cieszę!

[@grahammeintjes3313]

This is wonderful. I appreciate your analysis and interpretation of this piece, an old favourite of mine. Dziękuję Ci! By the way, where can I find your recordings in high-resolution or FLAC format?

[@gregniemczuk]

Thanks! The best quality of my recordings you can find on Spotify, iTunes, Google Play or Tidal, just write my name: Grzegorz Niemczuk

[@Jbgoat]

Everything comme to an end and one day you will finish your series about all Chopin’s music. Will you do other series like this with other composers like Liszt, Beethoven, Debussy etc ? Thanks again for your videos !

[@gregniemczuk]

Who knows!? Probably yes, because I will be missing this!

[@gregniemczuk]

I'm actually thinking about Grieg or maybe Mozart or Beethoven Sonatas. It's my big dream! And so much fun to learn them all!

[@misterteatime1840]

@@gregniemczuk The beethoven sonatas would be fantastic

[@bigl5343]

@@gregniemczuk (Previously Big L) The Mozart sonatas would be great. In my opinion, Chopin and Mozart pair with each other better than Beethoven. Mozart was one of Chopin's favorites. Both Chopin's and Mozart's music are masterpieces of melody, perfect form, and counterpoint. Mozart was revered for his ability to write beautiful melody, something Chopin wanted and did emulate in his music well-beyond his contemporaries. If you do Mozart, cover the Fugue in C minor, k. 426 and Gigue, K. 574 along with the sonatas.

[@bigl5343]

@@gregniemczuk Have you considered CPE Bach? His piano works do not get enough loving.
