I agree with csutilla. It is worth listening. Nice.
a little bit to slowly, but worthy for listening to, bravo.
Very emotional and heartbreaking, the way you play it. Really beautiful. This piece is tough. Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2 is in all my compilation books and “easier” and more popular than Op. 9 No. 1. I dunno why because this one is just as wonderful. Chopin is truly a genius.
where’s rubato????
very clean interpretation.^^ I think my friend Franklin goes to school with you. good luck to you guys!
bravissimo, absolutely gorgeous
all the Chopin’s pieces are sooooo romantic
thankss!!
practice practice practice. memorize, and practice.
After a while you will start to relate each note on the staff to a specific key on the piano and it will be very simple.
I played this two years ago, as well. I think I’m going to try to play it again. Your performance sounds beautiful!
B-E-A-utiful!!! loved it<333
do you or anyone have any tips on how i can learn to read music?? thx
Thank u!
This was recorded about a year and a half ago! It took me a few months – alongside doing lots of other pieces and performances.. so would probably be less, with less things to do. It’s more about the way you practice though, i’ve realised-repetition doesn’t do much, it’s gotta be about varied and creative practice, which tackles the technical and musical difficulties, without mindlessly repeating, Easy to type, harder to do though! Good luck
Very cool. How long did it take you to learn this to where you could play it that well? I just started this and it’s my first Chopin piece and probably the hardest thing I’ve tried so far. Again nice job.
when you have 11RH against 6LH, what notes connect? same question for 22RH, 12LH but i think it’s the same thing, just doubled.
Very good!
I feel very much of your soul 
!
I started piano 5 years ago……this is my next choice! The octaves have kept me away because I have small hands, but I LOVE this piece!
You play it beautifully, and are quite inspiring!
MORE please!
I’m learning this song! looove your interpretation
Might sound stalker-like, but your performance is currently a ringtone to my cellphone
I’ve been looking all over for this one, and this is by far the best, neatest, and clearest performance here on youtube.
Congratulations, you work wonders on that piano. Keep it. up.
Marry me!
Hmmm what’s the word for the better that fantastic…. brilliant…. no that dosn’t do it justice….. unbelievable….. meh it’s better than that….. im going to go with…..
WOW how do you do that!!!!!!!? …… that also does not do it justice 5/5 keep going – coz thats fantastically brilliantly unbelievably good xx
Ah, finally! I just spent an hour searching for even an acceptable version of this piece on youtube but everything is just junky, and then I stumble across this wonderful adaptation! Very well done! I will use your playing as my guideline!
This was a year ago, hoping to put up more recordings soon (when I get time to film), this comment made my day, thank you ever so much. best wishes
nice….
The one thing I never got about this piece is:
why did chopin modulate into D-flat major in the very beginning, play that beautiful sequence and not repeat it? Not even at the end.
Well played!
I’ve been taught I should experiment with fingering (even fingering I’m not familiar with) and find what feels most comfortable –remember this doesn’t mean unfamiliar. For the fiddly bit in bar three I used 2, 3, 4, 1, 4, 3, 2, 3, 5, 4, 2 (i think, will have to double check!)
This was really helpful advice. Those runs are daunting! And the fingering in my copy is insane. It’s nice to be given permission to fiddle with the fingering!
