The nocturnes (night pieces) are among the most introspective and personal of Chopins works, as he was influenced by John Fields pieces of the same title. This complete collection of the nocturnes includes a useful thematic index and footnotes citing the differences between the manuscripts and the first editions. The pedaling, tempos and other musical markings are Chopins. The comb binding creates a lay-flat book that is perfect for study and performance.
