Chopin Nocturn

[quyphong91]

Like if you watched "The Pianist"

[HeartToFarts]

I'd give my little finger to play piano like that. Oh wait........

[ITSbigwillystyle]

FYI: the guy is Wlady Speilman, the greatest pianist ever to live in Poland.

[atadziu]

@ITSbigwillystyle

Don't you mean Chopin was the greatest pianist to ever live in Poland?

[november1ish]

So emotional and evocative

[satu616]

[loulie1997]

what a beautiful piece. reminds me so much of war and sadness. yet i don't want to stop listening to it. it brings the sadness that makes you want to sit in the dark and wonder what life really is....

[nektoodessa]

@loulie1997

best description!



[RockStarPreacher]

@loulie1997 and not know why there are tears streaming down your face.

[3v1l1ns1d3]

@loulie1997 nocturn also means darkness if i remember correct..

[Princessayanna78]

Simply haunting. It's beauty is simplistic yet complex. What an incredible piece of music. Chopin was an incredible composer.  He lives forever through his music works of art.

[Shadowgirl43Returns]

Aaah,music like this is like pure poetry......

[diane33f34r]

beautiful, it brings tears to my eyes as well with mixed emotions. I love this. I also like it played by Joshua Bell on the violin.

[ACPerformances]

I have listened to this piece countless times through my life. It never fails to bring tears of joy to my eyes.

God damn modern times

[VigenToT]

can't you all just shut up and listen ! ! !

[aabatteryful]

I was trying to find some piano music to listen to and came across this, and then i realized i heard it in Karate Kid. Either way,  still love the song.

[IangossackDJ]

oops. Take out that Don't and overall lol. I was going to say something else and forgot to delete :/ Haha

[RapidJuice1]

Wow. I love this song.

[Jung5151]

Thinking of you, Cathy....my mentor, my friend!

[Taffyfolkartist]

Modern pop music shall NEVER capture the beauty or emotion Chopin, Beethovan or Bach managed to create in their compositions. This music touches the soul, and has such feeling and passion. They were truly gifted folk.

THE BEST OF THE BEST... LO MEJOR DEL MUNDO SIN DUDA ALGUNA, LA MUSICA CLASICA...

[calico992]

IMHO The pianist was an awful movie. He spent 2 minutes playing the piano in the entire movie. And that's including him playing the make believe piano on the desk.

Even though it was grossly historically inaccurate, I'll take Immortal Beloved any day.

When I watch a movie about a musician, I want to see them playing their instrument!

[alwayswinit4real]

@calico992 That movie wasn't about him being a musician. Pftt.....

[IangossackDJ]

@alwayswinit4real Yes the movie was about a Jewish pianist in Poland when the Germans invaded. It was a great movie and Chopin's music is amazing.

[alwayswinit4real]

@IangossackDJ Yes but him being a Pianist wasn't the main plot point.

I agree though: great movie and a great piece of music. 

[IangossackDJ]

@alwayswinit4real Well the plot was about the holocaust but also about him being a pianist and how his love for music saved him. I don't overall it was a magnificent movie and the music moved me. I love Chopin.

[cherylroyal3]

Listening filled my heart with such joy....absolutely God inspired...

In One Word..Beautiful!! Phyllis....

[MegaOshit]

Ahh if only people still existed with the potential to put so much feeling in a simple piano peice.

[abbitudeification]

@MegaOshit they do. Two words: Ludivico Einaudi.

[DJNsomniac]

@abbitudeification

Amen...he is brilliant

[immortalfranky]

@abbitudeification dont you dare compare chopin with einaudi.

einaudi is very good and i enjoy his music, but he is nowhere near on the same level.

[abbitudeification]

@immortalfranky jeez. not like i compared chopin and justin beiber..

[magegirl8]

@MegaOshit still?  Where did you get this definite information that there aren't any from?

[shayklil]

wow .. so true ..

[keetner]

@MegaOshit

Oh hey, I don't know...WHAT ABOUT CONCERT PIANISTS!?

[mower1776]

@MegaOshit its not simple

[mower1776]

@MegaOshit its not simple though it is superb

[Manatherindrell]

@MegaOshit They do. And they're called Yoko Kanno. And the piece is Yin No Piano.

[GinAmeDrops]

@Manatherindrell I'm learning Yin No Piano at the moment, it's so beautiful! <3

And I don't wanna waste time to describe chopin. Just listen, guys, and you'll know what I feel :)

[tejaachebrole]

@MegaOshit ..dude it's by no means simple. By Trinity Guidhall Standards it is Grade 8. It takes real balls to play this.(no offence intended)

[HannahBeHappy]

@MegaOshit I think they do. C: I think if people didn't recreate the wonderful pieces already created by the masters, and focused more on original composition, then perhaps there would be greater more easily accessible work today.

[hofmann308]

@MegaOshit why don't you

[billthegangsta]

@MegaOshit they exist... believe me :)

[jesus777754]

@MegaOshit creo entender algo, pero parece negativo el criterio.

para mi es una de las mejores interpretaciones en la vida.

[bloodsavant]

@MegaOshit: they do, they simply do not. Music like this is alive in every one, its our emotions.

[Snipehunter09]

@MegaOshit Yiruma...

[siglino]

I am loving discovering Chopin at the age of 41. I am sharing these beautiful pieces with friends and family so that they might feel serenity too as they listen to this music.

[Jung5151]

This is just too beautiful.....

[HakanSukur9Kral]

Кто подскажет как по английски будет называтся Шопена .. Мелодия Рая ? спасибо :) оффициальный перевод а не дословный :))

[musicisamask]

thank you for including the picture because all i could remember was that the song was one of Chopin's nocturns and it was from The Pianist.

[TheKociKoci]

Chopin, poeta del pianoforte,poeta del anima.E unico. Per sempre.

[TheChopin2010]

Chopin: Nocturne No. 20 in C-sharp minor

[perokomosellama]

deberian poner a todos los musicos en un altar

[carbondevil]

:,,(

[fourtyfoursunsets]

I can't even describe what this music does to me.

[Martinovaholka]

divine 

[yoporolomerocles]

which nocturne is this one it is simply beautiful

[CGGC1]

@yoporolomerocles This is Nocturne Op. Posthumous No. 20 in C Sharp minor. It is believed to be one of the first nocturnes Chopin ever composed, although it was published after his death. If you ask me, it is not just one of the best compositions by Chopin himself, but it is one of the most well written pieces of romantic music, and music in general. Listen to his Nocturne Op. 27 No. 2 and Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2. What the hell, listen to all of his piano pieces, they are just incredibly divine.

[aurora93360]

chopin...pura magia la sua musica,ascoltarla e suonarla e'un'emozione immensa^_^

[justinprofessions]

beautiful

[empyblessing]

classical is truly the highest form of music

[esart1]

wunderschön

[21iraklio]

ακου μουσικη..ο chopin ''βγαζει'' μια γλυκια μελαγχολια..

[animextrema]

en verdad parece que Chopin era profundo en sus expresiones al piano tan profundo que deslumbraria al mas frivolo ser ...tan pasivo...tan tranquilo da un aire pacifico y relajante ^-^ en verdad me agrada ^,^º

[pedevisser]

Very beautiful.

[BojosLlebrencs]

me gusta mas lady gaga que esto

[zagyr]

@BojosLlebrencs did your parents hit you with a shovel when you were young? did they drop you at birth? how else could you compare this to lady gaga's absolute lack of musical and lyrical talent, combined with her retarded sluttiness and her disgustingly ugly face???

[SubconsciousDweller]

@zagyr lmao!!

[nanomagnetic]

@zagyr Watch Lady Gaga play piano and sing in an early video. She's not talentless. A hack, perhaps, but not talentless.

[vicquial]

This music really touches ones heart.

Thank you for the upload!

BTW, which nocturne is this one?

[adaymac]

@vicquial Nocturne C sharp minor (opus posthumous), also known as Brown-Index 49

[MyArcticMonkey]

How strange.Everything develops in this crazy world.But not music.This work is written 200 years ago, yet it sound so fresh, when i hear all these new "artist" they sound dead.:(

[347176]

Браво за Шопен од Македонија.

[65Inna]

Marvellous!!!  Thank you

[Death69Dealer]

divine...

[lovelyethereal]

OMG his armband...

[AvengerToxic]

La diferencia fundamental entre esa música barata y palomitera, fruto de un lapsus temporal de la tal Gaga esa y Rihana o como se llame, y esta obra maestra es que una es atemporal, y cuando pasen los siglos, y los siglos Chopin seguirá siendo escuchado y estudiado en los conservatorios y Gaga y Rihana habrán desaparecido porque no figurarán en la Historia. Es simple

[eassaru]

adoro essa musica!

[meklopfklopf]

5 stars, very nice performance. Thank you for posting !

[PAULA856]

Przeprzeprzepiękne!

[Judyta92]

Geniusz...

[shawdow22222]

I am the biggest music illiterate, and my girlfriend is a music major... any suggestions on the classic works I should be listening to? I want to be able to share in her love of classic music.

[tenebrax]

@shawdow22222 Simple...Ask her :)

[shawdow22222]

yes i guess i will. i was going to try to start surprising her occasionally with little bits of knowledge but I guess it would be better to swallow my pride reveal my utter musical ineptitude and have her help me. i guess your right

[delscut]

GRASIAS CHOPIN POR SU MUSICA

[Guns8000]

so many emotions in this song

[fightfortheone2]

love the movie and of course the music!!

chopin is one of my favourite composer!!

[Njakalahy]

How about Chopin, a small tune for a man; a giant gift for mankind?

[CaramelFMA]

Is this the same guy from the movie "The Pianist"

[Guns8000]

yep great movie

[RnBandCrunk]

He is, indeed.

[jonderko]

@CaramelFMA NO! Are u crazy?

[CaramelFMA]

@jonderko how am i crazy haha

[Portogallo3008]

Awesome!!!!!

[dianett4js]

I just love this song :X

[kloryf]

Imho Olejniczak is better, but "de gustibus is not disputandum" ;) This is my favourite pianist who is performing Chopin music and that's a shame I didn'd notice that he is performing this nocturne...

Właściwie, to chyba możemy rozmawiać po Polsku, że zdaje się, ze też jesteś Polką ;)

[misiakmail]

de gustibus est non disputandum - tak na marginesie

[LoScoppiato]

De gustibus non est disputandum

[010011973]

it is Janisz Olejniczak

[kloryf]

Yeah I know that is Chopin Nocturne in C sharp minor and fact that he was Polish is obviously. Even his music (how brilliant and touching) was inspired by polish folk music. Without Poland, Poles patrotism, their love with fallen country there wouldn't be such a genius music.

PS: Who is playing this nocturne...? This is the best performing of this nocturne that I ever heard.

[olgaszkop]

Janusz Olejniczak, (a Polish pianist) is playing that nocturne, rather good. Nevertheless, as for me, the best performing of all Chopin pieces remains Milosz Magin !

[sharps33]

Could it be that he was born in Poland, but was a talented Jew?

[010011973]

a samoe glavnoe- talantliviy interpret.

[010011973]

velikolepnaya muzika.mojno slushat' do beskonechnosti...8888888888888­8

spasibo.

[nektoodessa]

пожалуйста))

[kloryf]

Who is performing this nocturne?

[SuperMatt31]

Chopin

[diveangelo]

I know nothing of music but when I heard this song played in the movie, I had to find out who it was and run out to buy it! Chopin has made me fall in love with classical music.

[szattila88]

Nothing much to say... It's just perfect.

[pietaszkowo123]

najpiękniejsze nocturn

[cyReesyPeace]

The first song I heard of Chopins was 'Petit Chein" even In that I knew he had something special, better than others.

[wolnoscnieokielznana]

Chopin was a genius of universal appeal. His music conquers the most diverse audiences. When the first notes of Chopin sound through the concert hall there is a happy sigh of recognition. [...] It is expressive and personal, but still a pure art. Even in this abstract atomic age, where emotion is not fashionable, Chopin endures. His music is the universal language of human communication. When I play Chopin I know I speak directly to the hearts of people! /Rubinstein/

[WillzUQ]

Because the world is sick for the sex.

[rebel69rebel]

Tremenda composición...

Melancolía pura...

[zaggaona]

you cannot compare shit like lady gaga to this. its like comparing football with gymnastics , its a complete different world.

[loperspest]

@zaggaona

At least professional football requires serious physical talent and skill.



[Lewhaar03]

@zaggaona i think its mor like hopscotch to gymnastics. football has is on the same level in some respects

[IxCloudxIx]

wow... chopin was truly miserable...

I still remember playing a song by his, and I kept playing the wrong interval, and my teacher would say...

"Its a minor 6th, NOT a major 7th.. CHOPIN WAS NOT HAPPY."

easily my favourite pianist/composer.

[jamycrothers]

i appreciate Mozart and Beethoven's works, but when you compare them to some of Chopin's pieces.. there is just no comparison.

Chopin puts music to emotions, not emotion into music, i believe this is what a lot of music nowadays lacks.

Nowadays you get acts like Lady Gaga and Rihanna which sing repetitive music but do not further music in any way.

I believe however the band "muse" are today's equivalent of Chopin, their music follows a story of emotion, not just repetition.

[hogo1]

@jamycrothers

Utter nonsense.  no comparison? like everything is so black and white. You're a fool

[Entropify]

@jamycrothers Beethoven wrote a lot of piano sonatas, I must admit they're good, but his best works, in my opinion, were his symphonies. Beethoven wrote only 9, but they're are much better than Mozart's symphonies.

Mozart excelled in other areas, short orchestral pieces such as "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" (I probably spelt that wrong).

On the other hand, it is these short piano works, the nocturnes, etudes, mazurkas, this is where Chopin excelled.

[satchi123]

i like mozart's beethovens' and chopin' music but my favourites are chopin, hes got something that the others dont have.

[GeneralPaccepa]

Why all modern songs/lyrics have to be about sex or sex related?

Why every stupid, messed up lyric has to be about sex?

I read in the news today that Qheen Elisabeth the second greeted Lady Gaga at some concert... Why is that?

[Ninabelle1000]

@General : I'm a music student in Strasbourg France,I'm actually playing this nocturne now...

but one thing i want to say , is that Lady Gaga is not all about sex,i agree that she uses sex as an object,but she is doing some artistic things too,some kind of performance art,i dont know if you know or not , but she is also a pianist , pretty good one,she has written a balade when she was 14,but why no one recognized her back then?

[animula88]

@jamycrothers What?

[BritaniaRuleAgain]

@jamycrothers Have you ever listened to The Doors? My favorite piece of music is by them. "The End" is a song full of brutal self-examination, isolation, and has blatant Oedipal references.

There are only a few bands who can accomplish what Chopin can. I maintain, however, it is impressive above all Chopin can do all this with just a Piano.

[jamycrothers]

@BritaniaRuleAgain Emm ive tried to get into the Doors. But ive just not ever been able to get into them.

The End is an amazing song, but a bit trippy for my tastes.

[alwayswinit4real]

@BritaniaRuleAgain ... FACEPALM!!

[SEMIprofoundness]

@jamycrothers you must be trolling

[SubconsciousDweller]

@jamycrothers I disagree!!! Mozart,Beethoven and Chopin are very comparable! they are the greatest! and are on the same level, musicianship wise!

Altho Muse is a good band, Muse Can Never be compared to these great masters of sound!! but i agree that Lady caca and Rhianna are nothing but garbage, and even worse they use music to poison the minds of the youth, what a shame!!!

[zagyr]

@SubconsciousDweller i wouldn't say they poison youth, parent's lack of parenting takes care of that very well, and thats why we have un-educated little suckers who have no idea who Chopin is, and listen to a gross slut with no musical or lyrical talent. fuck she can't even dress herself right!

[nanomagnetic]

@jamycrothers That's an extremely simplified view of music.

[Happyjoyjoy8]

@jamycrothers Only a handful of artists today are able to go deeper within themselves and communicate emotions. To name only a few, in my opinion, Peter Gabriel, Bjork and Portishead acomplish what many cannot. Although, it is nothing like the great composers, I agree.

[lukeroberts123]

@Happyjoyjoy8 ooo a very great comparison to portishead

[nouti]

@jamycrothers +1

[101Nissan]

@jamycrothers i didn't get your point

[michoghello]

@jamycrothers each composer have unique works that cannot be compared to anything else. this is one of Chopin and there is for Beethoven . Mozart and Bach... there are a lot of works for these composers that aren't that beautiful but all have some divine works immortal in the history of music Chopin nocturne Beethoven symphony n5,7mvt 2,moonlight sonata, Mozart symphony n40 Bach toccata and fugue. but i still see a lot of emotions in Beethoven's works his philosophy in composing and loving god

[iownagreyhound]

@jamycrothers I literally couldn't agree with you more, I was going to write my own comment on this piece but it sounded so similar to yours it was practically as repetitive as Lady Gaga
