Honestly, I prefer this one over the more famous No. 2. While No. 2 is certainly beautiful, I think this is even better and often doesn't receive the love it deserves.
@@christianvennemann9008 There’s a terrific violin version (with piano accompaniment) here on CZcams that was actually my first exposure ever to 27 no. 2. Type in the name Jacobsen & it should come up. Pretty old vid, but so worth the watch. His finger work in the latter half is magic...
I've always much prefered No. 1 over the more popular No. 2. I love it's mysteriousness. I guess one of the main reasons why No. 2 is more popular is because it's a happy piece. I'll take mystery / melancholy over happy pieces any day though. Great playing as usual.
Chopin puts in the mood where I can just sit down, doing nothing but living in the music. And to hear this beautiful piece on a beautiful piano is breathtaking. Great job Paul!
One of the best nocturnes, something very sensuous about its content, to me it almost defines the word elegance. Pure 19th century romanticism at its best. And amazing how it is not overdone or over embellished - just perfectly done.
Paul, you made the best performance of Chopin’s Nocturne Opus 9 N.1 EVER… Perfection is the word…. Congratulations! Chopin himself applause upstanding…. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
This is my favorite nocturne from the set. It compliments No. 2 very nicely with a very dark and solemn tone instead of one that is nostalgic and hopeful.
Oh how lovely to find another beautiful performance! I didn’t hold my breath like I did with the one last night- oh my that was amazing! However, this time, I just closed my eyes and went far away! Thank you so much. I am so grateful! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Exquisite…. I’ve just started learning this piece …. I look forward to the day I can put it all together and play with emotion .. etc … just lovely playing … thank you
Nice! I’m going to be doing abrsm grade 4 soon. Recently memorised & ‘learnt’ the piece after completing liebestraum number 3. Will probably be working on improvising this piece with the hopes of possibly performing it in November
Bravo, Paul! Thank you for this updated version of this lovely Nocturne. Like your previously upload from 2009, you take this at a perfect pace with sensible rubato and exquisite dynamics. Very inspiring and just an overall joy to listen to.
HELP, Paul! Struggling with this one. Would love a teaching video in slo mo for this piece. 🙏 Beautifully performed. I love the slower tempo you've chosen; too often it is played in a rushed fashion. 😍
Paul Barton I've finished the first page but it doesn't sound nearly as good as your playing. Do you recommend perfecting the part you already know or just keep pushing forward and work on it as a whole and hope it just comes together? Keep up the great work!
Nice playing Paul. I am self learning this Nocturne right now. This is quite a challenge for me as I only passed Abrsm (Level 5) 28 years ago and ever since I have not been taking piano lessons. The appregios on the left hand and rhythm for both hands are difficult. I simply want to master the technical part before I can work on interpretation.
I can never get my right hand to independently cascade those runs while maintaining the rhythm on the left hand. am jealous of people who can play this with ease!
@@ayhamshaheed7740 update! I followed RandonName's advice and started practicing Bach. After about a month. I noticed I was able to play hands better independently and therefore got this through piece pretty well (though obviously not concert level!) Thanks both.
Pra mim a composição para piano mais linda e impactante que já vi e ouvi. E essa interpretação a melhor de todas. Valoriza a não esquerda tornando a interpretação mais densa e harmoniosa. Não me canso de ver e ouvir e fico maravilhado. Parabéns!!! 👏❤️🇧🇷
Thanks for this nice piece! I am practicing this for my next week audition and find your way of playing more approachable than other I can find on net. Looking forward to more of your videos!
@@MicheleG1989_ easiest way to learn this (kinda cheating) is to just play 2 against 1 and then 3 against 2 for the last few notes. After that is comfortable you can kinda rubato it into a 6v11.
Thank you very much for the post. I am one of the viewers who requested this piece, which I have been struggling for quite a few years. Now I have another request: can you please do a tutorial on the triplets followed by a 20-plet on the very last page of the piece? I just can't fit those 20 notes played by the right hand against the 6 notes played by the left hand... and I can't get my right hand to play the 20 notes up to speed. Thank you again!!! Love the way you play the piece. :)
I was just about to start learning this piece :D one of my favourite nocturnes and you play it absolutely wonderful 😊 This will definetely help me learning it, thank you for posting :)
Hi Paul Do you have advices for the asynchronous first 2 measures? I have difficulties to get them right. I wonder if you had some advice and tricks. Thanks.

I am with you 100 percent there.
32 / 1 is very good.
@@ScruffyTubbles It is, but 27/2 in D-flat major and 48/1 in C minor are my absolute favorite Chopin Nocturnes

@@bendmymind486 I just listened. Thank you so much for introducing me to that beautiful arrangement! ❤❤

Paul den Hollander / 03data Don't forget no3 :)
Rockstar Pirate Personally I'm not a big fan of No. 3, but it's good to hear that people like that one too though. Chopin has so many great works.
+Agamaz I played through that one a few times. Also a great piece. I still prefer Op. 9 No. 1 though, I just love the way it feels.
True, I prefer the no 1 to no 2
Agamaz I'm the one who prefers No:2. Also it is my favorite classical piece. It makes me more sadder when I'm sad, more happier when I'm happy etc.
Always a favorite to play. My dad used to sleep to this while I play it haha
Why used to
@@necro_sg205 I wonder why
Really?.👺
omg same
My favourite Chopin Nocturnes are this and Nocturne in C sharp minor.
32 1 is very 👍
I love chopin for his more melancholic peaces mostly those in minor.
Such as this or Walz in A minor
Lovely interpreter, and lovely human being. Since I learned about his job with those blind Elephants, I admire and respect him much more.
Chopin puts in the mood where I can just sit down, doing nothing but living in the music. And to hear this beautiful piece on a beautiful piano is breathtaking. Great job Paul!
Me too
this is actually the most perfect improvisation of this piece that I could find at all. thank you for this gift
Agree … beautifully played …. I feel the emotion … just lovely
Beautiful rendition Paul! I have been chipping away at this piece for a long time. You have reignited my spirit and drive😅
My favorite piece by Chopin. Good job Paul it sounds awesome!
"This happens to be a nocturne. You know, Frederic-fucking-Chopin."
Wonderful interpretation! Mesmerizing sound of that piano!
What a performance again! Lovely to hear the spirit of Chopin in this remarkable recording.
Beautiful - I feel as though I never really heard the left hand part before, this really helps bring it out for me, thanks!
Tive o mesmo sentimento!
Essa peça requer valorizar a mão esquerda tbm.
One of the best nocturnes, something very sensuous about its content, to me it almost defines the word elegance. Pure 19th century romanticism at its best. And amazing how it is not overdone or over embellished - just perfectly done.
I am so happy to have discovered you. What pleasure you now bring to my life.
What an amazing rendition to this piece! Hats off!
Paul, you made the best performance of Chopin’s Nocturne Opus 9 N.1 EVER…
Perfection is the word….
Congratulations!
Chopin himself applause upstanding….
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
There's one word to describe this: Beautiful.
This is my favorite nocturne from the set. It compliments No. 2 very nicely with a very dark and solemn tone instead of one that is nostalgic and hopeful.
One of my favorite pieces of Chopin, a tutorial would be fine. I play this piece but would be happy to see your tutorial. Thank you Paul!
You make it look so easy. Your performances are always superb. Bravo.XAngela

One of the best (may be the best) versions that I heard so far. Thanks!
Wow Paul, I am amazed. I've rarely heard such an amazing performance. Absolutely beautiful.
I'm currently playing this for my level 10 RCM exam
Congrats !
Wth, I sincerely think this is not to far beyond level 7
Take a look at the sheets, it's a harder than op 9 no 2 and op 72 no 1
Nice! I’m going to be doing abrsm grade 4 soon. Recently memorised & ‘learnt’ the piece after completing liebestraum number 3. Will probably be working on improvising this piece with the hopes of possibly performing it in November
Agamaz beyond 10

This piece seems to be so easy when you play it! Very good job, it's wonderful!
LE GOBELIN it is simple yet so beautifully constructed
Love the camera angle. It must not be easy to set up this camera. Thank you.
Don Paul Barton, Excelentes interpretaciones, Felicitaciones desde Santiago de Chile, Pastor Ramon Arriola.
Fantastic and magic !!
Love the sound of piano 🎹😍❤️
Learned this piece awhile ago! So good to hear it again and fresh!
amazing work. You play this piece with accuracy to the time period and use the fingerings in sheet music. I'm inspired to learn this piece awesome
You are a master I enjoyed this so much! Thank you.
beautiful, you played it at the right tempo, like Brigitte Engerer. she plays Chopin wonderfully.
I have all her nocturnes downloaded on my phone. They are brilliant
And vadim Chaimovich of course!!
Thank you Paul!!! I'm learning this peace right now!!!
me too
how are you getting on with it?
Hi C7 Z I am glad. How is progress?
Paul Barton I've finished the first page but it doesn't sound nearly as good as your playing. Do you recommend perfecting the part you already know or just keep pushing forward and work on it as a whole and hope it just comes together? Keep up the great work!

The appregios on the left hand and rhythm for both hands are difficult. I simply want to master the technical part before I can work on interpretation.
Today I was playing this to my dad because he was helping me with this song and when I finished playing he was literally asleep and snoring lol
I can never get my right hand to independently cascade those runs while maintaining the rhythm on the left hand. am jealous of people who can play this with ease!
Shouldn’t take u too long. Took me about a day and I got the runs to work (have been playing piano about 2.5 yrs now)

Rod Salvador yeah the polyphony in a lot of Bach’s music’ll do that to you. Congrats on getting this piece down!
Spasibo, Paul! 🎵🎼🎶🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹
Esse é o meu noturno predileto. Você toca com muita expressão. Parabéns!

oh man its so calming.
BRAWO PAUL ! ❤️❤️♥️
this melody is in my heart 💖
One of my most favorite piano pieces ever! Great playing and keep it up!
Anyone else absolutely love 0:28?
Grazie.
I love playing this piece
Thanks for this nice piece! I am practicing this for my next week audition and find your way of playing more approachable than other I can find on net. Looking forward to more of your videos!
Hauntingly beautiful.
beautifully played as always ❤
Really beautiful playing.
Paul Barton, Splendid! I love your channel Paul. Greetings from Israel.
Bellísimo... como siempre. Gracias Paul
Beautiful piece of music and played as always so well keep up the good work!... Kind regards WF. Robinson
I really enjoy how you keep the movement flowing throughout filled with colour!
If i may make a request. A tutorial on the poly-rhythms in this piece? 6 against 11 hurts my brain.
Divide 6/11 and you see how many notes with the right hand you fit into one of the left hand.
@@MicheleG1989_ easiest way to learn this (kinda cheating) is to just play 2 against 1 and then 3 against 2 for the last few notes. After that is comfortable you can kinda rubato it into a 6v11.
That was really wonderful
Thank you so much! I am learning this piece currently.
Amazing as always Paul.
I've really wanted to see you play this piece for a while! Beautiful performance :)
this is the best nocturno...i love feel air
Beautiful.
my favorite nocturn. I've noticed that many use different fingering especially in the left hand.
Nice work, sounds really well! You make it seems so easy
Sublime.
This's the closing piece at Hong Kong library
what a dream play this song like this
How many times I need to play this to play so effeortlessly like him...no one knows
Just 500 (more or less)
i always thank you
I think that with 9/1 and 32/1 you can put more of yourself into the Nocturne. They are designed more for individual interpretation.
You play it amazing😊. Thanks 👏👏👏
i had been hoping that you'd do this!! Yay!!
You play really well! You should be proud!
Fantastic performance, very near C.Arrau version
Thank you very much for the post. I am one of the viewers who requested this piece, which I have been struggling for quite a few years.

Play 4 sets of triplets (3 RH notes per left hand note) for the first 12 notes and then play 4 RH notes per left hand note for the last 8
you should do op. 48 no. 1
you should do all the nocturnes
Please :-)
Pleaseeeee yes do op 48 no. 1
Yes, op 48 no 1 and op 55 no 1
Op 27 no 1
congratulations .... you are an artist
dear Paul would you complete(introduce more) other nocturnes. Thank you for wonderful sharing.
Thank you Paul. Your playing inspires me to learn more. Do you write music as well?
until i heard u play this i only had ears for ENGERER playing it- bravo . BRAVO !!!!!!!!!!
Amazing 👏👏👏
Mr. Barton, you are great! I wish to pay you visit you some day.
Love it
sublime.
Now I know why Mrs.George Sand was pursuing Chopin so badly,I would like do the same things!
Beautiful
If you could do a tutorial on bars 3-4 (and simil.) that would be awesome.
Great as usual
Strong requirements you should make a tutorial lesson as how to play 6/11 ,12/22,6/9 ,6/20😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I was just about to start learning this piece :D one of my favourite nocturnes and you play it absolutely wonderful 😊 This will definetely help me learning it, thank you for posting :)
Superb
It's great! Make more video with all Chopin's nocturnes. Greetings from Russia!
Tremendous as always Paul. I would love to hear you play op.55 no.1 in F minor
Hi Paul
Do you have advices for the asynchronous first 2 measures?
I have difficulties to get them right.
I wonder if you had some advice and tricks.
Thanks.
Gran interpretación Paul! Una digitalización perfecta. Sería genial el nocturne op. 72 no. 1
