21 Nocturnes

Album by Fryderyk Chopin & François Dumont

21 Nocturnes is a collection of solo piano nocturnes by Polish composer Frédéric Chopin, composed and first published between 1827 and 1846. The works exemplify Romantic-era piano repertoire, characterised by lyrical melodies, nuanced ornamentation, rich chromatic harmony and flexible rubato, and they form a substantial part of Chopin's mature output that helped define the nineteenth-century nocturne as a genre.
