Chopin Nocturne Number 13 in C-Minor Op.48 No.1

Chopin Nocturne Number 13 in C-Minor Op.48 No.1
Easily one of Chopin's most dificult Nocturnes, not just note-wise but in terms of nuance as well. This took me many months to learn and it still needs work! I originally based my interpretation off of Rubinstein's but ultimately did my own thing with it. Hopefully I captured the right spirit of the piece. Enjoy! Oh, and PLEASE COMMENT.

Edit: Thanks for the comments everyone. I appreciate them all. Also, thanks to Kutiman for including me in one of his remixes.

kutiman rocks!!!!!!!!!!

[cowheadcow]

yes but Kutiman didn't play this piece :-)

[chillywilly8033]

i am trying to learn this song and it is EXTREMELY difficult? how did you learn it, any pointers? how old are you by the way

[cowheadcow]

also, because playing 3 over 4, like in the last section, is extremely difficult, I would recommend metronome practice just with rhythms. Once you learn the notes, the piece isn't that difficult - it fits the hands quite nicely.

[chillywilly8033]

19 huh! that gives me hope that someone my age can play this! come teach me!!!

[cowheadcow]

how old are you?

[Flufmeister]

got here through kutiman of course, but just wanted to say that your part makes the song, nearly tears me up, that's your playing, amazing!

[EyalHoltzman]

Did you like what Kutiman did with it?

[DoingKazantip]

@tensly so true. another hi from Russia.

[nkredskin]

Thank you for bringing out the deceptive cadence at the end of the melody's return! That's the most amazing part for me.

[KAEarch]

You play this very difficult Nocturne beautifully! I'm learning this piece also, but I still have a long way to go to play it well. Thank you for sharing.

[norriaty]

Brilliant, well done!

[tensly]

Hi from Russia! You really have great skills!

@throwscats I don't think this piece is about deep depression. The right hand is "singing" and in that I hear passion and pensiveness. Played too slow, this song is a bust. It has an energy to it. It's...maybe...searching.
