Dreamlike
‘An original way to make a declaration of love or to put the children to bed.’ (Le Monde)
Art song for two hands
NOCTURNE
Opus 9, No. 2
Frédéric Chopin, 1832
Yet as a child Chopin was fascinated by the voices and melodies of the Opera. Later on, in his 21 Nocturnes, the young composer transferred the expressive possibilities of human art song directly to his most important medium, the piano. The Nocturne Opus 9, No. 2 is considered as his most famous piece. It’s still a big dream for many piano students to be able to play this romantic melody.
