To answer the question at the start: his first attempt was his op. 72 no. 1, in E minor, written for his dead sister. He never published it because he never was satisfied with it. I think it’s lovely- it’s my favorite piece in the world actually. But ah well, composers are perfectionists 😔
@@andresantos_ nah, it's the best. before it comes Op. 48 No. 1 C minor and then Op. 55 No. 1 F minor. I also put as a honorable mention Op. Posth No. 20 C# Minor
Chopin gets me every time … and your performance made me tear up after 30 seconds. Some beautiful. Just discovered your videos and definitely gonna stay ✨
I love how you caption every phrases that you play, using your piano playing to communicate with us, writing out all the words to let us understand why this why that. Very considerate of u 👍🏻🥰
This was so fun to watch with the commentary and score! For the first time, I feel a bit glad I play violin instead of piano because of those polyrhythms o.o Looking forward to your content!
"this part is like warm sunlight on fresh sheets" this piece: is a nocturne all jokes aside, your playing is so emotionally rich, which i admire. i've been playing piano for 12 years, but i haven't really gotten into real classical/romantic era pieces until about 2 years ago. thank you for cultivating that interest with your playing :)
I just binged all your videos and cannot wait for the next! I cannot describe how incredible your playing is. Your accuracy is *chef's kiss*, and you pay all the pieces such due respect (I mean... Fur Elise is a special case). But I wish you the best of luck as a musician. If an album happens... yes.
Bro make more videos wtf I'm actually jonesing I watched everything you have and it's all amazing and now there's just darkness..... Honestly, I really like the fantasie impromptu one where you added subtext commentary!! I'd love clair de lune, raindrops, moonlight sonata 3rd, nocturne op 9 no 2, or anything else you got!!!
I am currently studying this piece and all I cna say is that it's the most beautiful piece ever done by chopin, it has a mysterious "andante" and then an angry melody that turns into a calm one.
The way you bend over the piano the last part of the song... i always do that too when i play this song! haha i thought i was the only one but its nice to know you do that too and im not weird😂😂 much love - from a fellow pianist
@@tsalt I think Op9 No2, Op9 No1, then Love Dream / Liebestraum by Liszt probably! Whatever feels comfortable to you and whichever pieces are calling to you the most might change this order though :)
this is amazing... just amazing. You understand the piece and you play it with passion, whilst sitting there in a hoody, just grate. (and is it just me or does your piano need a little tuning 4:18)
Great stuff! Hey so you seem pretty knowledgeable, I got a question: To what degree do you abide by the fingering presented here? My hands aren't enormous (and yours don't seem to be either) and there's many octave intervals such as 2:00 where Chopin asks us to play it with 1 and 3. I get that the hand moves more naturally to the other octave this way, but why force a legato when you got the pedal to cover you, does it really sound different? Thanks sorry maybe bit nitpicky question but it was driving me a bit crazy because at a certain point you just want to commit to one fingering, know what I mean? Anyway thanks a lot if you have time to respond
Hey! I pretty much ignore fingering markings unless I can't work out one on my own that feels good to me. A lot of the time the fingerings aren't from the composer anyway and are added in by the editor of that particular edition (if you buy different editions you may see different fingerings). My advice is just find whatever works for you and doesn't negatively affect the sound!
Very well played. But of course, if it were so simple, every one could duplicate what Chopin did. The fact that no one after him could, proves that it is unfathomable and unknowable what he did. Even to him. It was just divinity expressing itself through him because it could, he was the right channel. And so it happened and produced alll these divine sounds and structures.
Is it feasible to learn it within the first year of playing? I am trying really hard, but keeping my hands in control during that first polyrythm is impossible...
it's so beautiful, i've tried playing it but it requires so much focus i'm still 1 minute in and one distraction and it's gone... Does anyone have the same issue?
friend, I have a question, I am transferring the score to musescore, the third bar I see is an eighth note oncillo, the problem is that if I put the half note first, the quarter note, the oncillo, at the end musescore gives me 2 quarter rests. what am I doing wrong?
Its super beautiful but i keep saying: you cant crescendo to con forza if youre already forte the whole time! Youre playing a grand piano with such a huge dynamic range, and all the signs are there on the sheet music. Use em! Exaggerate em! Stop trying not to be lang lang or whatever is holding you back, fek that guy and let us hear some real dynamic range and rubato’s, i know they are there in your head, let us hear em! ;)
hey this is now on spotify :) open.spotify.com/album/53tQQsX2EiFYfRSUYkUIg4

Op9 no1 feels like the smile of a person who never smiles

Very musical!
The god himself!
One of my favourite nocturnes, such an underrated one
Surprising that you even heard of Chopin, considering there's absolutely no overlaps in the times you had lived in...
Yo Mozart when are you going on tour
Chopin gets me every time … and your performance made me tear up after 30 seconds. Some beautiful. Just discovered your videos and definitely gonna stay ✨
im so happy i found this channel, you are truly gifted
20% gifted + 200% effort, I am sure he been through alot of hardwork and practice to become this good today 👍🏻😍
polyrhythms, the bane of every pianists existence. this is amazing!
It’s pieces like these that make me so glad I’m a musician.
I just witnessed the most precise 7 vs 6 quavers. Congratulations!!
I mean for the whole piece obviously ahah
Brilliantly glorious rendition of this beautiful piece. Refined and understated, never showy, but pure skilled musicianship.
I love how you caption every phrases that you play, using your piano playing to communicate with us, writing out all the words to let us understand why this why that. Very considerate of u 👍🏻🥰
This is my favorite rendition of this nocturne now!
I've listened to this thing probably over 50 times now and it never gets old, actually inspired me to learn this piece as well
This was so fun to watch with the commentary and score! For the first time, I feel a bit glad I play violin instead of piano because of those polyrhythms o.o

That commentary tho... 😂
Ahhhh. A lovely piano for a fantastic pianist. That’s how it should always be. Love your channel.

true. I would listen to his album if he ever posted.
I really like how much you express yourself while playing the piano it's really funny to watch
thanks :)))) it's really fun for me to express myself too!
He's so good, practised sooo much that he's able to do it so clearly and so beautifully.
This is my new favourite YT channel, please keep making videos! 😊
started learning this piece after watching you! thanks!!
Channel worthy of millions subscribers.
Wow I just played this piece not to long ago. I love your playing!
People who haven't read the sheet music: This piece is easy.
The key signature and polyrhythms: ...
i always loooovee your interpretations!!!
U're actually funny and educational ! x)
NAH CUZ THIS IS SO GOOD
I love hearing you play 😊

This is beautiful 😭😭😭
Songs have backgrounds to them this one sounds like a dark mood at first then it gets more bright and happy and this is why I like pianos
That was just amazing. ❤️
I also enjoy the dark middle voice right at the very end of the piece ❤️ well done!
The way you bend over the piano the last part of the song... i always do that too when i play this song! haha i thought i was the only one but its nice to know you do that too and im not weird😂😂 much love - from a fellow pianist
This piece its so poetic and you have explained and played a great performance man, thanks
Idk why but I'm a fan right now. Hello from Indonesia!
I love this piece! It definitely takes me to a serene place in the forest by a stream with the gentle wind blowing like you said. Nice. 👍😉🌲🏞
bro you have so much talent.
Ornamentation nicely expressed.
Piękna muzyka, bardzo dziękuję. ❤️
Your playing and narrating the story is legendary! Can you also do Op.72 No.1 pleeease? It's my favorite nocturne.
S t a n d a r d piano posture
Seriously though i love this, Chopin's nocturnes are amazing, i think my favourite is 62 1
I took a moment after listening to that
Kudos,is not enough. Love ur way
Oh my god the polyrhythms in this piece just hit SO DIFFERENT AGH
Amazing!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Beautiful!
I like the commentary you wrote. (:
Nice playing friend.
Great job,dude !! 🎹👍

The grind starts
Wow! U are very good. Can you do Nocturne Op.9 No.2 in some kind of wacky way?

wow 😍

Please keep the text for longer and give us a chance to read 😂
can we get n.2
Who is this pianist. Will's background please. Magnificent
What diffilcuty does this piece in? I would like to learn it next month. Also, what website did you visit to download the piece?
Probably imslp
My son was 5 years old when he played this
its not Rubinstein , but its very good ! omg !!! Nice performance

Why so long polyrhythm in his nocturnes 😭😭😭

Wow
I can still kind of see the connection inside the polirythms
Very nice playing and very emotional, however I personally think that the contrast between the one P and the two P's could have been done better.
2:10 🥹
🤯
i know this is not smart to ask but i am really really curious, how many hours did you practice for this?
