Chopin composed and published his popular Nocturne in E-flat major in 1833. Like much of Chopin’s music, this nocturne is filled with melancholy.
The main melody is heard three times during the solo piano piece. With each repetition, it is varied by more and more tones and trills. The foundation for the melodic line is provided by the spaced notes in the accompaniment.
The nocturne is reflective until it becomes passionate near the end. The melody begins softly but then ascends to a high register and is played with force, eventually reaching the loudest part of the musical work. Tension increases as the crescendo brightly moves up to the long trill. Then the excitement subsides, ending the nocturne calmly.
If you want to understand and get to know Chopin, you can read his letters.

Whenever I’m feeling sad or in a peaceful mood this is what I like to listen to. I love classical music, these were very gifted people.
when i hear this it allows me to think clearly i have a great appreication for this music
I love the way you played this. But the recording runs into some static on some high notes for some reason.
I love this particular piece from Chopin. It takes me away to somewhere before our world got too complex and busy. I picked up the piano 7 months ago and played a water down version of Nocturne for my first recital. It wasn’t Nocturne in Eb for sure but…my audience approved. My goal is to play Nocturne in Eb
it’s soft and strong at he same time, sad and magic! for me the best song ever!

Beautiful! I love every moment of it, really moving piece.
I love the static in this song. It makes the song that much more real. I think it’s the most beautiful song ever.
Muito lindo esse som!
My husband from which I have a child and I am separated is polish. I think the way we met and romance was well defined with this piece on music. Love Chopin, also visited with my son and husband in Poland the salt mines and when we reached the end of the tour the top part of thuis site was iluminated with millions of stars and in the background this music was palying. Exquisite moment, love, romance, creativity, history and moments that speak of Chopin.
To continue with my previous comment I feel transported to roses, candle ligth beautiful church music and angels carrying happines to every sad soul. Is the perfect song to celebrate San Valentine.
