Frédéric CHOPIN: Nocturne in C-sharp Minor (Op. Posth.)

[Yanoclassic]

best presentation of the masterpiece

[harbiye100]

Love is Song Respect TURKEY :)

[pannak16]

Fryderyk Chopin :) He is my favourite composer! I love his music... I am a Pole and Chopin was Pole and he played the piano for Poland, because he loved our homeland. I'm proud, that I live in Poland :) Unfortunately, I'm writting English, because people who live abroad don't learn Polish...

[vickylovsmusic]

i really prefer the violin version. go listen to stefan jackiw the purest violinist of all time.

[xBl00dBrothersX]

excellent, but you did mess up horribly on the middle of the piece.

[unicornlunchbox]

@xBl00dBrothersX ...not sure if you've heard this song before...but they didn't "mess up horribly on the middle of the piece"...

[Szymono101]

Poles rock!

[DanniCoconut]

[GeneralTheGuy]

Always wanted to paly pieces like this. *sigh* But it's too late now, damned joints in my hands shot at the age of 20. So unfair.

Maldición de hermosa! Amo a Chopin!! ♥ gracias : 3

Where did you get your music for that from?

[maestrojimbo]

Is this an electronic piano?

[J0EH3AD]

Amazing intense yet soothing performance.

[asianmusic99]

@MKMO890 and Kret0s ... it actually took me 3 years to attempt this piece. Everything is possible, as long as you practice!! DUh!!!!

[mikhailaquinn]

i like how it echoes :) i could listen to this recording for hours... In fact, I just might.

[YueSakuraKirei]

simply beautiful :)

[idisagree]

College Finals = Chopin

[nicecoolstuff13579]

Great song to listen to while you're doing homework. :)

[ClaudiuPiano]

hi,i like your tempo,and you play very good...how old are you?

[raterroyale]

PEACEMAKER!

[arkansasnate63]

This is my fist response to any video on YouTube. I believe Chopin would be proud to have this piece played in souch an emotional and romantic way. Best I have ever heard. God bless.

[itinkle]

Love your tempo :)

[PortraitOfFire]

ive always loved your tempo. it makes the song sound extremely relaxing

[PortraitOfFire]

ive always loved your tempo. it makes the song sound extremely relaxing

[o2class]

I love this song especially the way you played it. It sounds so mellow, nice, romantic, and relaxing. I don't know how to explain it but out of the styles that other people play this song, i just love the way you played! Slow, narrative, and I want to it all the time.

Very impressive and good job.

[brysonwest93]

@o2class Agreed!

[televisiescherm]

I love you man!

[SFuNk24]

I love this filming techniquie! How did you do this? oh and your piano playing is great. Love your interpretation of this piece. It's very dark ;)

[ReedDollaz15]

i dont know how anyone could dislike this beautiful piece of art

[kpopfan009]

@MKM0890 That is very sad, but you should never give up hope! I'm sure you will make your family and dad very proud after you accomplished many pieces on the piano :) It's never late to start anything. It might even motivate you more and allow you to exceed other people who started at an early age!

[garadued]

20 people are lady gaga and bieber fans, fucking idiots >.<

[andredidiergijon]

@garadued respect other people's opinion, don't insult them just cos they clicked on dislike button

[sahandsesoot]

u are playing some parts half the speed... very poor dynamic.

[tegrenath]

@sahandsesoot Dynamics and tempo are two totally different things. I don't know why so many people demand metronomic performances of Chopin anyway, rubato plays a massive part in bringing out the emotion of Romantic music.

[Xenostratos]

20 People have no sense for art

[mipela]

You are playing this lovely piece beautifully already!

Keep practicing and be patient.

I would suggest you speed it up a bit, especially the second part, concentrate a bit more on voicing, and then forget the meter and pour all of yourself into the piece!

You are already a concert pianist! CONGRATULATIONS!

[inulover007]

I really really love this. Played beautifully.

[aro22012]

i have to admit i play it a bit faster, but this slow version is really amazing ! bravo ! it really touched me

[leahbaer11]

I little slow but AMAZING. You play beautifully. It sounds beautiful!

[FallingXInXTheXDark]

damn you're good, one of my faourite pieces of music.... Well done! :)

[TheSergeOfficial]

Great,immortal music...Great playing too,my grandmother was an excellent piano player...And one person i adore loves that music too...

[phi223]

Your tone is absolutely gorgeous!

[babybookelly]

wow!! sooo beautiful!!!

[19olivier72]

Bravissimo!!!!

[PortraitOfFire]

youre version is my favorite

[ravskinnman]

Never was serbian , and he nothing have to do with that. Where are you grow up ??????!!!!!!!!!! In the forest ???!!! Polish-french , nothing else .

[SuperDancer1414]

j'adore cette chanson! tres belle!!

[OriginalBasaliskos]

Why is it that in /all/ your interpretations of Chopin you play so damn slowly and just make everything mawkish and overly sentimental? 

[sineluce]

best one!1 amazing

[sineluce]

best one!! amazing

[djenricomastermix]

first i noticed is too much echo added but otherwise its rly gd

[Skitzobilly]

On of the greatest Serbian composers, well fucking done!

[djenricomastermix]

@Skitzobilly SERBIAN????

[Skitzobilly]

@djenricomastermix His father was Serb.

[gmomchilov]

@Skitzobilly does that make him Serbian? no offence, m8, but he was a Pole and nuch more French than Serbian.

[dngel4u]

i love this)))) been playing ever since i was 5 years old, 14 now...and gonna perform this piece at a concert soon....cant wait)))

[cuoylyf]

very beautiful!!!!

[zeldanut08]

Beautiful beautiful song.

[Hekman78]

My wounded heart feeds my sadness, and this music rises my soul.

I'm alive with no love...

[SashasFlashlight]

19 people are lady gaga fans HOW COULD YOU NOT LIKE THIS!!!!!!1!!!

[Xargxes]

@SashasFlashlight MAYBE BECAUSE OF THE FUCKING HORRIBLE ECHO????? just saying x)

[SDTrueStar]

i love playing piano.. beeen playing since i was 6 , 13 now.. love this piece ! !!!

[MKM0890]

ever since i was 5 i wanted to play the piano but my dad got cancer and died leaving my mom alone with me, my 2 brothers and a sister and i was the oldest i wanted to play the piano but how could i ask my mother to provide me some kind of musical education when she had so many problems i'm 20 now i started going to college after working part time jobs i bought my own instrument and started taking lessons. this piece and chopin in general is what kept me going i hope it's not too late

[Narekm94]

@MKM0890 my story is not better, its never late to start, especially in music, especially if u have such a good taste...I'm 17 now, and i almost collect money for my piano, so i will learn too, and this is going to be first thing am gonna learn !

Have a great life my friend !

[born2drum16]

@Narekm94 yeah man its never too late to start. I started piano when I was in 8th grade and im a senior in high school and with the passion and the practicing hours a day im going to a music school for composition =]. good luck with your piano!

[Narekm94]

@born2drum16 good luck to u too !

[re707]

@MKM0890 Woww yur llifes like a moviee

[beralder9]

@MKM0890 I wish you good luck!

[araujo1]

@MKM0890 Man! I id with you... i live in mexico so culture is very poor, and my home economy too, but i'm 18 and I started 2 years ago... It's never too late, yeah maybe you won't be a Chopin or so, but you can still be great! and with such a great musical taste haha Chopin is the one who keeps me studying too....

[spannyka1]

@MKM0890 You are never too late to learn. Keep practicing and you will get to the level where u can play this piece.

[FlameScorpian]

@MKM0890 There is no age limit for passion, go and learn and if you find joy in piano you will be able to learn this song.

[anhhoang0812]

@MKM0890 You can do it! I have always been in love with music and the piano as well, but also was never able to afford to even buy the instrument itself. I and my sister always got jealous of the rich kids who were able to have piano lessons and yet refused to, or did it so unwillingly as if it was a burden for them. All we could do at the time was just thinking that instruments and music connoisseurship is meant to be for rich kids only. But your example's given me hope!

[ruthazuz]

@MKM0890 It's never too late! Go for it!

[8lovenotes]

@MKM0890 It's never too late. Your dedication and commitment will take you far. However, just don't play "songs." Play your scales every day and learn theory. You will excel...

[NtS5555]

@MKM0890 Never too late, never too early. Music is only what you get out of it.

[Nesoja]

@MKM0890 Holy shit dude

.........play on

[max51817]

@MKM0890 So true, never too late. I started taking piano lessons 6 months ago (I am 56) .... so many wonderful pieces to learn. Work, work and more work. Good luck and never give up.

[MATHSMASTA]

@MKM0890 It is never too late but piano takes years to master and for a 7 th grader like me it took almost 8 and a half years too perfect everything. Piano...shouldn't be taken as just a leisure type of activity, it takes hard work and dedication to learn a song.

[gypsy680754]

@MKM0890 I am abt 40 all my life I wanted to learn to play at least one instrument but I couldn't till now. You are a lucky man started at half of my age. Let the music lead to you to the ultimate bliss ........best of luck

[dennis0mus]

@MKM0890

its better to start late than never start!!

and it's not too late!!

[Kret0s]

@MKM0890 you'll get there.... if you love piano, before you know it, you'll be playing this....

not to scare you but it took me 8 years before i attempted this song... but pretty sure it can be done earlier because it wasnt that hard when i first attempted this

[coolsambo60]

@MKM0890 I started playing piano at 21 years old (this past September) and I just finished this piece (which I started about a month ago). Rest assured, if you try hard enough, you will almost certainly be able to do it.

[lovedarkbreathe]

@MKM0890 It's never too late. :-)

[marymroe]

@MKM0890 You might not be able to play the most challenging pieces to perfection. There is a school of thought that if you haven't developed the speed and dexterity in adolescents it is too late. No matter what, if you feel the piece, if you understand what the composer was trying to express you will accomplish your goals. I no longer play for anyone but myself, and I have never enjoyed it more. I understand what you mean about keeping you going. This is the second time it has save my life.

[concept015]

@MKM0890 its never too late

[cherahh116]

@MKM0890

Never too late. I was 16 when I started and being older I learned quickly. The piano was one of the few things I ever got that I really wanted and never dreamed I'd have. I was gifted with lessons. I never forgot what I learned in that year and a half. I taught myself to play Chopin. Somebody told me to practice sight reading the music everyday, It really works, The piano still touches my heart, love the sound, beauty beyond words for me. There are lessons on Youtube.com. Good luck.

[THEWORLD116]

@MKM0890 Its never to late today I just start piano and meet the teacher for intro. Im 20 too this year and the teacher told me that he teach this old women age 68 years old 1 year later she can play many song from beethoven and chopin..the teacher told me the reason is she practice everyday... and must fall in love with the piano...

[MrBigBlonde]

@MKM0890

it is never too late...

i ve allways wanted to learn guitarplay, i started just when i turned 23. at least i know what i want, and my motivation is high enough

[daldrq]

@MKM0890 It's never too late buddy.Don't give up.

[amxmachine]

@MKM0890 its never too late. you have your whole life to make this wonderful music

[readygo242]

@MKM0890 I'm in the same boat as you. I sing, and have always had an "exceptional" ear. I started learning guitar. All the songs I learn are by ear, but piano has always been where my heart is, I too hope to learn someday.

[frankzj]

I like how you let this breathe. Too many pianists play it too fast

[macj2013]

why does this nocturne sound so familiar?

[SixFeetUndr101]

@macj2013 It was in Roman Polanski's "The Pianist" with Adrien Brody

[amlwje]

amazing piece!!!!! so sad and so beatuful at the same time

[ravskinnman]

What he (Chopin) want to say ????????

I just can' t believed how beautiful is this piece ....

[leben35]

perfect

[PDeepIn]

the sound is awsome

[akman0508]

Beautiful.

[1973ritz]

i mean on the 8th bar first note instead of F sharp it's D sharp.........

[WebNightingale]

@1973ritz I thought the same... but it still sounds nice.

[1973ritz]

may i ask.....why is it some are playing this piece specially on the 8 bar they are playing it on D sharp instead of F sharp

[ferrari4sale]

I'm addictive to this piece.

[ferrari4sale]

What grade is this piece? I'm on my second semester of piano at CC. When can i be able to play this piece.

[MegNito967]

@ferrari4sale in Canada, at least, Nocturne in C Sharp minor is considered to be a grade 9 piece (piano wise, mind you)

i'm actually in the process of learning it, currently, and the ending is very difficult to master. :P

anyways, if you want a good estimate, i'm learning it and i'm 16 years old, and really only started with a good teacher at the age of 11. i have learned rapidly, but that doesn't mean this piece is any less difficult.

good luck!

[ferrari4sale]

Wow i didn't know this is graded 9. I wonder what grade is Moonlight Sonata 3rd movement, because that pieces is insane.

[thinkgreenlovepurple]

hm, I wonder if everyone plays this piece for grade 9 rcm. I don't know anyone who did grade 9 RCM and didn't play this piece (myself included)! Personally I think the part starting around 2:45 is the hardest, it took so long for me to be satisfied with how it sounded, and I always lost the pulse around there. maybe that's just me,haha :)

[lookablez]

wow this is beautiful. I'm going to start learning this.. hope I can play as good as you one day. :)

[2611karmickee]

speechlessssssss 

[reimtheorie]

don`t listen to this music, but this is awesome .>

[joeeshwar]

Dear Cubusdk,

Could I use this rendition of yours for a short film I am making.

regards

Joe

[derkuj]

FRYDERYK was his name !!!!!!

[villarreal20]

@derkuj in polish, and the french version of it it's written like in the video.

cheers

[derkuj]

@villarreal20 ok, but what for ? johnny walker in Polish is "jasiu wędrownik", I have too much respect for johnny to call him "jasiu". get it? :)

[villarreal20]

@derkuj I think you don't get it, Chopin was born in Poland, yes, but he was half french and it was in Paris were he became famous, so i think its only natural it sometimes appears that way, don't you? There's actually no lack of respect.

[ivanvvt]

tutorial!!!!

please

[MegNito967]

@ivanvvt, for songs at this high of a level, tutorials are pretty much worthless. there has to be some kind of technique already learned by a pianist before he/she can think about playing it.

i could put up a tutorial on how i did it, however it wouldn't be of much use, you know?

[Apriljahr]

That´s a dream..........

[agalloch666]

Your hands tell a story.

[epeeista07]

well done :)

[f1nalChance]

tryin to play this on the violin but cant find sheet music T_T rofl

[Azary1992]

[laura5787]

It sounds like you're enjoying every single note you play. I like it.

[GrannySchaefer]

So very beautiful!

[muziekengeluid]

Well done...

Has anyone seen 'The peacemaker'? Hans Zimmer has put a string orchestra behind this piece... really touching...

[LFZ15]

I almost cried.

[Char1esP]

@LFZ15 I did

[NinjaHiro94]

You play really good but isn't it a bit too slowly ?

[Pallapakology]

@NinjaHiro94 People prefer different tempos - of course within the borders of what can be interpreted from the sheets. I for one find this tempo perfect :)

[takhirviolinest]

this good tempo just you have to move on...

[joker59142006]

holy shit...this is incredible :| perfect tempo in my opinion, and he hit every note perfect.....this guy knows how to play :) 2 thumbs up

[joonicake]

Amazing :)

[glance777]

das war sehr gut gespielt man - ich habe leider keine Zeit für sowas da ich ein große Familie habe, nun denn vielleicht später mal für mich, aber wirklich - Hut ab!

[BeautyMusicD]

I Love it <3

[MichellePerera]

[KAPNIZW]

Excellent...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!

[DJumpen1]

is this an easy piece to learn ?

[orchdork1969]

@DJumpen1 far from.. chopin is hard -_-;;

[jacquib92]

@DJumpen1>> no, it is really really REALLY hard to learn properly. those scales at the end are killers =(

[wongy2006]

@jacquib92 it's not as hard when you figure out a comfortable fingering...

On the first of the last scales I go 1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,3,2,1,3,2,1,4,­3,2,1,3 (I don't know why I end on 3 but I do XDDD)

[jacquib92]

@wongy2006 fingering is not the problem... ive got that all worked out and the timing.. its the speed =( and then keeping it legato and making sure the left hand doesnt slow down... -sigh- need to practice my scales more >.<

[yayforrubberbands99]

beautiful :) Chopin is an amazing composer, you interpreted his work well :)

[Achot1991]

Lento con gran espressione ...

[yeahyeah013]

finally someone that plays this song at the right tempo. slow is the way to go with this one. nice work :)

[ispinintights]

first person i've seen play it as slow as me! i hate when it's played faster.

go us.
