I'm in awe. The more I learn about Chopin's work, the more I realise the gap that stands between this man and the rest of the world. I'm in tears everytime I listen to my favorite composer, I feel like I could never understand his sentimental and deep understanding of human's heart. This nocturne is the best piece I've ever listened, nothing but pure emotions, truly the work of a prodigy ❤
@@SonataSecrets I think that is what Chopin excel at compared to other pianist of his era and pianist that adore him like Rachmaninoff and Debussy also have this ability of squeezing emotion from air vibrations.
YOU ARE GENIUS, HENRIK! I love playing this nocture and I was just searching for some orchestral arrangements here on YT when I found YOUR VIDEO and... I am shocked how well you described this masterpiece. I appreciate how natural you are and how good is your storytelling, not to mention your piano playing which is obviously perfect. I am overwhelmed. Just spent an hour at night watching this video back and forth :) THANK YOU, Man. Greetings from Wrocław, Poland.
Amazing analysis, you really helped me understand the piece, this makes it a lot easier to connect and interpret the piece. I now feel more emotionally connected to the piece while playing, thank you!!
Loved your analysis of one of my favorite chopin pieces!! I thought it interesting your idea that his outburst after the demon (9:47) is happy and outcoming! I've always interpreted differently though. I think as if he was telling a story of great loss after a long battle, and in the end the demon comes and disrupts it all, and that is the las straw, he breaks and enters a state of dramatic chaos, lamenting and feeling it all... (which is the next part after the great descending octaves resolution)
Addicted to listening to this Nocturne & thanks for the informative & entertaining analysis. I truly think the recap. section was composed at many later sessions simply because it's just too devine & so beautifully crafted. Also I very much applaude him for the abrupt ending as it leaves you wanting to listen to it again & again.
I've been looking for an analysis of this piece on youtube for a while, really enjoyed listening to that and especially the description of the ground disappearing and the feeling of taking flight
I find it so hard not to tear up listening to this piece, it perfectly captures grief and loss but in the most perfect beautiful way, seriously what did Chopin go through to compose this masterpiece? Amazing playing btw matey
Discovered your channel by accident - just love it! I've only started playing the piano again after a very long break and am delighted to discover Simple Solutions which is exactly what I need! Thank you so much and look forward to more videos and simpler arrangements :)
at 9:13 and 9:24 your right hand top notes deviate from score. At 9:13 it should be A and 9:24 it should be B. It's basically the same chorale 8 bars before if you remove octaves.
I recently discovered your channel and the content is so useful and interesting! I really like the little emojis here and there! By the way you need more recognition, your channel is so underrated
hi i am 15 and play the piano 11 years i recently finished chopin nocturne op 55 no 1 and your video really helped me understand the piece .I played it on a competition and i was 2 .Now i wanted to play a more tragic and beutifull piece and i picked this nocturne .I just finished your video and i am hyped to play this oustanising piece.Very good analysis keep it uppppp!!!!!
this is sooooo helpful! i’ve been struggling for two weeks and then i found your video. it makes me understand the emotions and can play it better. thank you so much
Wonderful! This is the Chopin piece I most yearn to play, am still building my technique experience before I tackle it properly, but when I’m ready I'll definitively revisit this excellent tutorial. Very glad I discovered your channel which has many other excellent tutorials on pieces I want to play, thank you ❤
Prof Kilhamn, How does playing this piece make you feel? Is it difficult, emotionally, to play? Do you ever think, "Oh, no. I don't want to play that now, it's too dark and foreboding"? Or does playing it have the opposite effect?
Great walk through of the whole piece & I enjoyed the performance at the end. Your technique on the 3rd section is a goal of many-even pacing with a soft touch & pronounced melody. Bravo!
Life be a greater joy playing the piano like you. Music can be so powerful in emotion communication across time, space, human races and culture. Thank you. Wish more music lovers could see this footage...
To me, this piece represents helplessness. Like as if you lost someone you loved and it was all your fault. Sad, then reminiscing, then angry at yourself.
The middle section sounds like the awe and the majesty of a church organ. Like Chopin is pressing his ear against the doors of the narthex listening to the music of church then he is tormented by a demon. Chopin tormented rushes out of the church into the gloom of a rainy Parisien day. Chopin was known to be tormented by demon and having mental illness. This is what I feel. Remember, art is subjective.
I’m sad to discover your channel few weeks ago, but I’m trying to see all “old” vídeos degustating it how it deserves It’s too didatic in terms of feelings that we’d always had listening that, but we should not learn or see in any other channel Congratulations!! Great job!!👏👏👏👏
I think his Op. 27 no. 1 is of the darkest of the nocturnes and it has some really interesting compositional elements. I would love to hear your take on it!
love your videos. Just recently discovered your channel and I've been binge watching all your vids. Will you be making a vid on the D flat nocturn? Thanks for all the great content! You've immensely talented.
Been looking for a channel that does these sorts of analyses - can’t wait to check out your video’s on Satie and Ravel This is also my favourite of his Nocturnes - Argerich’s interpretation in particular (albeit ik she plays it a bit faster than the piece calls for) I play this every day - one of the first classical pieces I fell hard for as a kid.
Brilliant analysis. This is such a delirious and surreal piece and I feel tired just looking at the sheet music. I tried this piece in college and it just felt too massive. And the way you describe it is scary but accurate. I feel like it is not the right piece to play in a setting like a hospital or old folk's home. I'm not sure where or how it would really be appropriate to play it.
A very dramatic effect is obtained in the Coda of the piece (six bars to the end), whereas we first land on a octave-doubled bass Gb, that is the 7th minor of a chord containing the C min harmony (a sort of false and rich of tension landing on the 7th), and in the subsequent bar we land on a tripled natural B, that is the 7th of C harmony. Finally, we land in the C min harmony, after two false landings that create tension to the final chord of C min. All this creates a suspended ending, rich of emotional strenght with a very dramatic effect, in my opinion. Let me ask a question: why, ini the doppio movimento, at 12:34 , 12:46 and so on, you don't mantain regular the ascending chromes of the theme, instead of adapting the triplets to them?
Thank you Henrik for your great work! RUclips is full of piano tutorials where you can see which notes to play and what fingers to use, we don’t need more like that. That’s why I’m sooo thankful I discovered your channel. You talk about feelings in music and how they are created. And why music lovers like me make exactly the same emoji faces when listening or playing pieces like this gorgeous nocturne which is my favorite. I absolutely love the part with the guy flying over the melody. And of course the end of the doppio with that „almost“ resolution into a gorgeous chord which I cannot identify. Can you tell me what chord that is? Based on c, but more dramatic. Tack så mycket.
Thank you Ute, I'm so happy to hear that! :) Oh right, I don't say what chord it is here - it's a deceptive cadence to Ab7 (with the 7th Gb in the bass), that then goes on to Db - G7 - Cm for the final resolution.
@@SonataSecrets ... thanks for the answer Henrik, this part gives me goosebumps every time ... Greetings from the German Baltic coast ... which is almost Sweden, right? Tack så mycket
lovely live performance--good analysis, and i know you could say a lot more if you wanted to go deeper--the emojis on the score feed are new and crazy fun for me as i get to know your channel: this chopin nocturne is the most delightful for me so far, the floating ghost...
I recently learnt op 32 no2, op 55 no1 and op 62 no2 with the help of your videos. I wish you were my piano teacher! I’m gonna try this op48 no1, it seems so difficult though. Next I’m gonna try the polonaises. Am I aiming too high? (I stopped practicing for 20 years) Please do some videos of Chopin polonaises. Love from Hong Kong. Thanks a million.
Suverän analys! Håller med om känslorna som frammanas, även om man kan undra hur universellt det upplevs så. Tyvärr fixar jag bara första delen. Hinner inte bryta upp de stora ackorden i c dur...
Hi Henrik. Thanks for your insightful analysis of this heart-wrenching nocturne. Apologies for pointing out a mistake: at 5:24 and 15:30 Chopin uses the more unyielding G instead of B-natural in the base. (I made the same mistake when learning the piece.)
He seems to change a lot of notes. Look at the way he just crosses out the inconvenient ones in the score. Most jarring to me is 17:30 and 17:38. I had to grab my copy to make sure I was remembering right. The chords at the end of measure 41 and 43 are supposed to be wider, but he lowers the top (melody) note for some reason and I just cannot abide it.
Would you say Chopin was “talking” in this piece more than singing in something like nocturne op.9? Especially on the part you called “flying” I heard it as him trying to tell something to someone but being always interrupted by doubts and overthinking etc. until eventually letting it out on the “flying” part.
This song was rejected too because of the transition to the Doppio Movimento section, my family said that this song had zero relation and doesn’t evoke night
Also my family hates anything that’s forte or louder, having huge contrast or overly sad/angry. I might be able to list at least 10 songs that I enjoyed that my family disapproved
1. Moonlight Sonata 1st Movement 2. Moonlight Sonata 3rd Movement 3. Nocturne in C sharp minor Op. posth 4. Prelude in E minor Op. 28 No. 4 5. Prelude in C minor Op. 28 No. 20 6. Octaves Etude in B minor Op. 25 No. 10 7. Winter Wind Etude in A minor Op. 25 No. 11 8. Nocturne in C minor Op. 48 No. 1 9. Nocturne in F major Op. 15 No. 1 10. Revolutionary Etude in C minor Op. 10 No. 12
@@keithkunikida1222 that’s a shame your family is like this does it actually affect your ability to enjoy these pieces or is it just a slight annoyance
pls secretly learn revolutionary etude like separate hands so it's not loud and then just blast the fuck out of them with this glorious piece. Also you might consider purchasing a cheap keyboard in order to be able to play with headphones so that only you choses what you can play.
The ending is so brutal, so desperate, with agitated triplet accompaniment, achingly nostalgic major 7th chords etc. and it reminds me of early Scriabin. While the overall impression the piece may leave is that of a cynical person, the ending is probably the music that runs in one's head when they're thinking of commiting suicide. It's that brutal!
I son't know of any flute channels I'm afraid... For symphonic music I can reccomend Inside the Score who gives very accessible presentations of classical music, even more generally than here.
@@SonataSecrets thank you, I'll take a look. my mother has been learning the flute for 2 years now. due to where she's living there isn't really a good flute teacher, or any flute teachers for that matter. I'm trying to find and translate some of the videos for her to watch to hopefully make her a better flute player :)
Hello young man. I have a very important question. Do we have any analysis about harmony in this kind of music? why you are not talking about S-D-T... chords?!!!! When I am searching for these kinds of analysis I really would like to hear about high professionalism. You hear in this music nostalgia or sadness or, or, or... But it's just described for amateurs but not analysis. Sorry for my comment, but it is not an analysis. I give like but it's not fair.😐
Thanks for the comment, and for the like anyway! This is one of the first videos I ever did, and I have tried to find a style since then that also provides more advanced types of analysis like harmonic functions. But at the same time I would also call this another type of analysis that is more accessible (there is no better word for it!), and looking at the music from another perspective than only the traditional harmonic analysis.
@@SonataSecrets I wish you the best. I really liked your videos but as a composer and harmony teacher I would like and wait for your videos really . wish you the best and I trust that you are a very good musician.

My ex emailed me during your performance and your performance was the soundtrack for it. Chopin knew heartache for sure.

The end of the b section is so extra, I love it
I keep coming back to this video because I'm absolutely in love with how you play
Definatly the best and saddest nocturne.

But at the same time I would also call this another type of analysis that is more accessible (there is no better word for it!), and looking at the music from another perspective than only the traditional harmonic analysis.
@@SonataSecrets I wish you the best. I really liked your videos but as a composer and harmony teacher I would like and wait for your videos really . wish you the best and I trust that you are a very good musician.
