Impressive analysis. The only one thumb down probably came from the judge who didn't understand this nocturne.
😂👌🏻
Amazing and very informal lecture. One of my favorite nocturnes by Chopin and I learned a lot of new things from this video. I'm also a bit frustrated after the story you told us. You should've made it to the finals.
This was the best 46 minutes I ever spent on CZcams. Absolutely engrossing from start to finish. I love your insightful analysis and earnest presentation, so accessible. You deserve a huge following!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for these words. They mean so much to me! I've made such videos about every Chopin piece!
I love the last kiss methaphor! 🥰
If all the piano teachers taught with the same passion as you, we would have twice as many great pianists. Thank you for your work.
Thank you! I agree that passion is very important in teaching!
I very much like your interpretation of Chopin's pieces. You are one of the best pianists.
it is a big pleasure to watch ! thank you!
intriguing story, lovely video, truly appreciated!
Thank You for this very inspiring lecture!
Thank you very much for this analysis and playing. You're wonderful! 🙏🥰
Beautiful palying! Bravo !
Wow excellent analysis!
I was moved. Thanks Greg 👏👏🌹
amazing. I started playing the piano 1 year ago and after I saw your video of op 9 no. 1 I learned it, now i want to learn this one and it really helps me so much to understand is, thank you! :)
Congratulations!
what a great and passionate analysis this is
Thank you!
Hello thank you for your generous time in making all of this videos for us. These videos are extremely valuable because I have read a lot of biographies but examining the music is where you truly get the benefits of his work. May I ask if you have a donation link? I would love to support you thank you
Hi! Thank you so much for this comment! Such feelings are the best support for me. But if you wish to do more, you can use this link: paypal.me/grzegorzniemczuk thank you very much!
Love your videos
I definitely agree with scherzando
Playing same as you do and I always got bit confused why others not doing ...finally someone (you) interpret as is was meant to be
Yeeeey!!! Thank you Liana! Wonderful! Yes, be brave to play what's actually WRITTEN! 🌹🌹🌹
Absolutely wonderful! Out of many many recordings of this nocturne I find yours is the purest one, speaking to the listener's imagination. I like to think of Chopin dreaming about how it would be like to be with his beloved woman, and the realization, that it's only a dream, coming through at several points with a "sader" connotation.
I prefer your recording of this on spotify over any other one and I hope you get the chance to record more in the future! Keep up the great work :)
Thank you so much! I appreciate your words. It's one of my favorites!
Greg, you’re the best interpreter of Chopin, I enjoy so much listening to your analysis
Thank you Richard!!! It means a lot to me!
After watching, via the internet, your recital that you gave last August, I became interested, dear Mo Niemczuk, to follow your analysis for Nocturne op 9, no. 3. I do not hide from you the fact that your interpretation was very eloquent and captivating. I think you have a unique way of approaching all of Chopin's work.
This Nocturne, however, reminds me of Shakespeare's "A Midnight Summer's Dream", a mainly "scherzando" play, also. There are more than one erotic couples, and the dialogue between lovers is colored by various variations of feelings and emotions.
But more, I want to emphasize the fact that a composer is generally free to imagine, feel and create. Unfortunately, a performer is often a prisoner of prejudice, obsession or even premeditated decisions of a committee that, despite the fact that it may be composed of internationally renowned artists, the purpose it serves is not always, either legitimate or fair.
Yes!! And unfortunately I was a casualty of that... But this was a lesson for me. And what's more, I didn't change after that! I decided to continue playing the music like I feel it should be played, having my own style.
@@gregniemczuk Go on your own way, Mo Niemczuk !!! You will prevail !!! The work assigned to you through this project is much more worthier and worldwide acclaimed, compared to a typical prize from a jury composed by narrow-minded and morally reprehensible "artists".
Wow. Mind blown. This may just be my favourite nocturne now! So beautiful and sad 😥 💕
Thanks!!! Thanks for watching
In nocturne no.3, Scherzando in musical terms,means ' playful' rather than joking which is the more literal meaning .I think playful is a more fitting description for this nocturne,though perhaps with a gentle flowing approach.. This is my gut feeling .In the more dramatic questioning section -this could be an argument and teasing which provokes some unrest then making up , between the lovers before finally making up before they depart
Ciertamente la forma en que toca el nocturno 3 es muy diferente, pero yo creo que es la forma más acertada. Es ligera, hermosa, habla del amor desde una perspectiva de gozo. A mi me ha encantado. Muchas gracias.👏🏼👏🏼♥️
Gracias Manuela!
This piece really works with your non-technical analysis style as it is so complex. You found things I hadn't noticed, so really interesting!
I completely agree with you Its is actually marked scherzando THREE times in the music, for the avoidance of doubt! For me when trying to play this I felt the scherzando in the music especially in the first half (bar 31 is a lot of fun to play, I think you cannot take the high C and B notes too seriously!!). Honestly, I didn't even notice the "scherzando" marking when I first started playing it, it just seemed obviously playful.
Oh, and by the way, that was beautifully played by you. I wish I might be able to play that agitato section at a proper tempo one day!
There is one detail I feel differently about, which is the "risoluto" scale near the end, which I don't feel should be played fast, but with a kind of off-the-beat determination. Just my feeling, though.
Thank you so much!!! Risoluto means something like "with self-confidence"
@@gregniemczuk Ah?! The English translation is "resolved" which in English at least is like determined, decided. And that determined my idea of this bar... but as I say that is merely my humble feeling, I do not profess to have any insight into what Chopin might have wanted... Clara Schumann uses the same term in her music. I wonder where she got it from... anyway she did play a lot of Chopin's music! :))
@@hippophile yes that's true. But I gave you my own subjective translation 😊😊😊😊
@@gregniemczuk Well if I can only disagree about one bar, I think we are on the same wavelength! 😊😊😊 I just thought I'd share my one little idea... ;-)
Maestro, can we have your recording of this nocturne?I really like your interpretation and all your analysis is just outstanding.Always visit your channel to have a deeper understanding before playing every Chopin's piece .Your passion towards music always motivate me in my music path. Really hope you can make analysis about etudes soon. Lots of thanks.
Wow! Thank you so much! My heart is warmer when I read this comment. Please look for my recording of this Nocturne on Spotify or iTunes. If you cannot find I'll send you a link. Etudes will be at the end of the year. I need huge amount of time to practice them!
I absolutily agree. I have decide to study this nocturno as you say , as Chopin said.
You are a great pianist, technically and musically. Thanks for this videos. At the end you seem to be exhauted because of the true and pasion of your interpretation and explanations.
Congratulation!!!
When i finish the nocturno i will sent you from Sevilla Spain, and i would be greatful if you tell me yiur opinion.
Claro!!! Por favor, mándame la grabación cuando termines estudiándolo. Suerte!
Did he ask her to move to Paris with him when they were at a dance, and this nocturne is that whole night set to music? Melody 1: Waltzing and laughing after a few drinks. Melody 2: "I'm leaving for Paris". "Ha ha ha ha ha, what's that Fred? Oh, hang on, I love this song!" Some time later, Melody 3: "We need to talk...", then he repeats his news (Melody 2), and then "Ha ha ha ha ha...oh Fred, you're serious!" (B section begins). "Please come with me!" "Sorry, Fred, I really can't!" He begs repeatedly but finally relents. "Well, that sucks, but let's enjoy the rest of the night." "Ha ha ha ha ha... okay!" Repeat A Section, the rest of the night went very well, and then they said goodbye... Maybe, who knows! Thank you Greg for all these ideas, and for playing this nocturne the way Fred intended!
Ha ha ha! Wonderful!
As always, you are passionate, intelligent, charming and captivating. Please tell me that I may watch you perform in New York one day.
I really hope it will be possible!
Great video as always!
Hugs from Brazil
Will you make a video about the Fantasy in F minor op. 49?
Yes! In October. I'm still working on this massive work
Greg, my interpretation is somewhat different. Often in relationships, there are moments where one partner cavalierly treats an emotion in a way that is deeply important to the other partner and it causes great emotional pain. That is what I believe is happening in part A, causing the explosion of anger, not cruelty, in part B. The voice you characterize as "begging for mercy" is, I believe, the one speaking "jokingly" in part A and is now offering a heartfelt apology to try and mitigate the pain they have caused. The reconciliation at the end after the recapitulation of part A shows that the offended partner has accepted that the hurtful "joking" was done out of love rather than insensitivity or disregard for their feelings.
That's really interesting
This whole thing was perfect, from start to finist, I don’t know how to explain, but this video is full with life, and happiness and emotions. One thing, why did the statue turned away at 18:34? It really scared me😂
LOL!!! I didn't see that!! It looks like he's alive!! 🙂🙂🙂🙂
Hello, can you please recommend a good music dictionary?
I have trouble practicing the “storm” part.. do you have any suggestions? Appreciate it!!
Well left hand alone, only one group of 6 notes at a time, repeat many times and learn how to think fast....
@@gregniemczuk thank you!!!
@@gregniemczuk Bach gigues to think fast? Chopin liked Bach after all! :))
Dommage que ce ne soit pas en français ou au moins les sous titres
listening to recordings I thought it would say dolce in the beginning not scherzando LOL
Right?
I Like him... 😂 ....... and; Wrong Note! Booom😂😂😂😂
Hahahahaha
