Lívia Rév Chopin Nocturne in B major Op 9 No 3 "Murmures de la Seine 3"
Livia Rév, who was born in Hungary, started her musical education with Margit Varro. It was evident from a very early age that she was exceptionally talented as she won the Grand Prix des Enfants Prodiges when she was nine. She made her debut with orchestra when she was twelve performing the Mozart E flat Concerto for two pianos.
In later years she studied with Leo Weiner and Szekely at the Franz Liszt Academy in Budapest, with Professor Robert Teichmuller at the Leipzig Conservatory, and with Paul Weingarten of the Vienna Conservatory. She also won the Grand Prix de l'Academie Franz Liszt.

Sir Malcolm Sargent first brought her to the notice of the British public after a successful orchestral concert. Since that time she has been a regular visitor to the United Kingdom, and has played more or less everywhere both in recital and with orchestra.

Madame Rév plays regularly all over Europe and has been the soloist with such conductors as Sir Adrian Boult, André Cluytens, Jascha Horenstein, Eugen Jochum, Josef Krips, Rafael Kubelik, Hans Schmidt-Isserstedt, Konstantin Silvestri and Waltert Susskind. In 1963 she was invited to make her debut in the United States by the Rockefeller Institute. Subsequently she made her New York debut with a recital at the Town Hall which was oustandingly successful.

For some years now Madame Rév has made her home in Paris. Between her travels to Japan, Hong Kong, the Middle East, Africa and elsewhere, she teaches at the Université Musicale Internationale de Paris. Each year she gives a public masterclass on interpretation which is always very much appreciated.

  • The agitato part is too slow for my tastes, but otherwise this is amazing. :)

  • Murmures de la Seine? whata stupid nickname is this?

    Chopin never put them I wonder why have to do it other people

  • The best interpretation I've ever heard... so delicate and musical.

  • her style and tone are similar to Arthur Rubinstein

  • Very lovely!

  • I used to think this nocturne was too repetitive. But now, it's one of my favorites.

  • What a joy to learn of this remarkable pianist. She has a similar background to that of Agi Jambor. both VERY good pianists.

    This is a lovely version of this most challenging of Chopin's nocturnes. I love the aura of delicacy and serenity she achieves.

    Are there any commercial reccordings from her earlier career?

  • She truly mastered this song.

    WOW. it's taking me so long to learn this.

  • BEST VERSION I'VE EVER HEARD

  • It didn't require sauce- it had

    been eaten long ago
