Nocturnes

Album by Fryderyk Chopin & Maurizio Pollini

Nocturnes is a set of solo piano pieces by Frédéric Chopin, composed between 1827 and 1846. They exemplify Chopin's contribution to the Romantic piano repertoire through lyrical, nocturnal textures, expressive rubato and refined ornamentation, and they represent a key development in his mature stylistic approach and in the genre of the piano miniature.
