Nocturne in B Major, Op. 32, No. 1 by Chopin MV

The Chopin Nocturne

Chopin’s nocturnes carry many similarities with those of Field while at the same time retaining a distinct, unique sound of their own. One aspect of the nocturne that Chopin continued from Field is the use of a song-like melody in the right hand. This is one of the most if not the most important features to the nocturne as a whole. The use of the melody as vocals bestowed a greater emotional depth to the piece, drawing the listener in to a greater extent. Along with the right-hand melody, Chopin continued the use of another nocturne “necessity,” that of playing broken chords on the left hand to act as the rhythm under his right-handed “vocal” melody. Another technique used by Field and continued by Chopin was the more extensive use of the pedal. By using the pedal more, the music gains more emotional expression through sustained notes, giving the piece an aura of drama. With these main attributes of the “Field nocturne” Chopin was inspired, and expanded upon them to develop the “Chopin nocturne.”

Am I ready fot the concert...?

Wow! A concert...
The concert will be held in October. This will be my first concert. I'm going to play two songs. The solo is "La Tendress" from Richard Clayderman. That's why I post a music video of Richard Clayderman so I can really understand the song. This song is really good. I like it s much. But I have to practice a lot so I can play it  well.
The second song is a duet song. It's the song from Jay Chou and Yu Hao. This song is from Secret Opening Song. It's rather difficult but I will practice and practice so I can master this song.
I hope I can do the best for my first concert...
Wish me luck, guys! ^^
