Frédéric Chopin - All 21 Nocturnes

All 21 dreamy nocturnes by Frédéric Chopin were performed under the motto ‘Images of the Night’ on the same evening. The cycle, which is an important part of piano literature and which Chopin composed between 1827 and 1846, was presented to the public by various students of Prof. Michail Lifits’ piano class at the Weimar University of Music in December 2023. The students’ artistic personalities should not be aligned with each other, but rather emphasise and express their individual strengths. “Chopin made the soul of the piano sing. His music combines the singing and the virtuoso in a very organic way, which allows us pianists to experience a very intense connection with our instrument,” says Lifits. 00:00:00 - Start 00:00:30 - Nocturne No. 1 op. 9 No. 1 (Artemy Sokolovsky) 00:05:47 - Nocturne No. 2 op. 9 No. 2 (Artemy Sokolovsky) 00:09:38 - Nocturne No. 3 op. 9 No. 3 Artemy Sokolovsky) 00:16:47 - Nocturne No. 4 op. 15 No. 1 (Tiankai Yu) 00:21:06 - Nocturne No.
