zygis on Apr 7th, 2009Sergei Rachmaninov Nocturne No. 1 in F sharp minor
The first nocturne in F sharp minor, was written 14-21 November 1887, and has three parts: a beginning and an end in andante cantabile and a central section in allegro. The slower andantes are gentle sections, influenced by Pyotr Tchaikovsky, while the allegro is unnatural and stiff and unusually fast for a nocturne.

zygis on Feb 13th, 2009Frédéric Chopin Nocturne in G minor Op. 15 No. 3
The piece begins with a slow lento tempo and is written in 3/4 time. The right hand part is composed of simple eighth and quarter note patterns, followed by a chromatic rise and fall. The left hand part maintains quarter note patters to support the right hand, with pedal marks every six notes. The ending part of the piece is marked religioso and uses legato chords in the Right hand part. The piece also has incredible dynamic contrast, ranging from fortissimo to pianissimo.

zygis on Feb 13th, 2009Frédéric Chopin Nocturne in B major Op. 9 No. 3
Nocturne in B major Op. 9 No. 3 is in the ternary form A-B-A .the first section (Allegretto).The second contrasting section(Agitato)is a very dramatic one with a combined melody & counter-melody in the right hand and triplets in the left hand throughout this section which needs a great amount of virtuosity. The piece is full of coloratura ornaments, and ends with a wide chord in the left hand accompanied with (senza tempo) right hand triplets in a high octave to lead to a legatissimo smorzando adagio.
zygis on Feb 13th, 2009Frédéric Chopin Nocturne in B-flat minor Op. 9 No. 1
Nocturne in B-flat minor Op. 9 No. 1 has a rhythmic freedom that came to characterise Chopin’s later work. The left hand has an unbroken sequence of quavers in simple arpeggios throughout the entire piece, while the right hand moves with freedom in patterns of eleven, twenty, and twenty-two notes. The opening section moves into a contrasting middle section, which flows back to the opening material in a transitional passage where the melody floats above seventeen consecutive bars of D-flat major chords. The reprise of the first section grows out of this and the nocturne concludes peacefully.
