So grateful he was my "boss" for nine years in the great Chicago Symphony Orchestra.

@mugge62 Merry Christmas and Happy new year to you too.

Simply at a non reachable level... Outstanding interpretation. Thank you, sir, even months later for having the time to put this video online!

@Tetrafonia Firstly, I would like to thank you, my friend Αλέκος, for having recommended this video.
Daniel Barenboim conducted an interpretation of the highest level, one of the most beautiful I've ever heard. The D flat, deep and intense, at 4:09, quoting the words of briarcliffbaron, is a surprising exclamation point, conceived by the great sensitivity of the virtuoso. The dialogue between the voices at the end is something so special, a real wonder!
Bravo, Maestro!

My soul escapes and hovers whenever I hear this greatest of all Chopin Nocturnes. How profound and other worldly. What wonders a simple piano can do in the hands of a master with the depth of Barenboim. Thank you sir !

@478493 Yeah.

All of these non-Beethoven videos prove my point: Barenboim is good at anything - Debussy, Schubert, Chopin, Mozart, Haydn, Liszt, not only Beethoven!
It's absolutely wonderful, but it's not a surprise for those who know Barenboïm's recording of the complete nocturnes (DGG). Thank you mugge62, but he did not play this after "Chopin's 3rd and 5th concertos", but after BEETHOVEN's 3rd and 5th concertos (Chopin composed only 2 concertos!).

@BrunoLien:
Thanks Bruno for commenting. And... Ofcourse it is after playing Beethovens 3rd and 5th. and not Chopin.
I have already corrected my wrong annotation. My uploads and playlist show Beethoven.
Thanks and and may I wish you a merry Christmas.
