- Albert Ferber (1911 - 1987) was a Swiss-born pianist who made his home in London from the late 1930s onwards. His teachers included Marguerite Long and Walter Gieseking and, as a teenager, he also played to Rachmaninov. Ferber played sensitively and intelligently as can be heard in this performance, despite the less-than-ideal recorded sound quality.

He appears to have an ideal Fauré "feel", with melting harmonies and delicate clarity. The whole piece, thornier to master than one might think, is beautifully "directed", climaxes find their natural intensity and the closing phrases I find heart-rendingly tender & haunting.
Such a musical sensitive pianist.
Music to melt troubles away. He is wonderful, as is Faure, of course. Very visual. Thank you for the post, Paul. xx Claudia
An extraordinary musician,thank you
Wonderful performance by this great Swiss pianist.
absolutely gorgeous music and musicianship. Faure and Ferber.
Ferber made the second theme beautifully haunting. I adore this rendition!
Gorgeous.What a wonderful musician/pianist.
Sorry I never heard of him before.
Thanks for informing me, Julian.
Ferber nous enlève vers d autres horizons, c est du romantique pur avec une precise comprehension des harmonies de Faurè Il nous transporte dans une monde meilleur.....
One of the most beautiful piano pieces ever written (and perfomed with sublime subtlety here). It has influenced my own piano writing more than any other work. Thank you for uploading Ferbers masterly performance of this masterpiece.

A sublime nocturne, and I tjhink my favourite Faure Nocturne.....though I have to confess to not being familair with most of his nocturnes! ....I only really know no.4 apart from this one, and I prefer this to no.4. I will try and listen to his other nocturnes when I can.
Thank you for introducing me to such a wonderful pianist ! 5* Uli
Thank you shela for sharing this video with me ! Uli
The ‘father’ of French romantic, modern and perhaps even impressionist music. Unique coloring.
Very beautiful. A distinguished pianist!! A worthy student of Mme Long.
...A very interesting response, thank you!
In some respects, I like this interpretation even more than that of his teacher Marguerite Long. The long singing polyphonic lines of the piece sound more logical to me; on the other hand the clarity and brilliant touch of the passagework starting at 3:37 is unsurpassed in Long's version.
Is this a transfer from a vinyl record made in the 50s? The sound quality is excellent!
The recording is transferred from a vinyl disc of about 1973/4, so it was recorded in stereo. If you enjoyed this, I've just uploaded Ferber's recording of 'Jeux d'eau' which I think is also very fine
simplement magnifique! v. Dank de MI
Best version I’ve heard so far, even better than his teacher Marguerite Long (though it’s a pity he plays some chords to aggressively)
