help on accompaniment for beethoven op 2 no 1 July 07, 2010, 02:18:45 AM by brunotheiss
|
Hello, I'm going to play at the municipal theater with a friend. Each one of us will play half a hour and then we'll do some piano four-hands.
I have a semester to work on the pieces I'll play alone, and one of them will for sure be Beethoven Op. 2 no. 1.
Here's the question: is the program below unnefective or something like that? Anyone here have a much better idea?
-------------------------------------------------- Rachmaninoff - Prelude Op. 3 no. 2 in C Sharp Minor Beethoven - Sonata Op. 2 no. 1 in F Minor Chopin - Nocturne Op. 48 in C Minor --------------------------------------------------
If it's ok, I won't even bother on changing anything, I just wanna know if there's some kind of a big mistake in my choice.
Thank you already

Chopin Nocturne op.48 #1 - General Info, Tips, Etc. August 25, 2009, 09:58:19 PM by chopiabin
|
This nocturne is one of my favorite pieces by Chopin - it's almost funereal 1st movement and the clever recapitulation of that theme in the wildly despairing climax always sends chills up my spine.
I am currently polishing this piece back up to snuff after neglecting it for a few years, and I plan to include it as a dramatic opening for a much larger, and, for me anyway, very ambitious program that will also include: Chopin - op.10#1, op.25#12, Ballade#3 in Ab; Rachmaninov prelude in B minor op.32#10; and Scriabin etude in C#minor op.2#1.
I was surprised by the dearth of information on this piece despite searching the archives of the forum and decided to start a general discussion topic.
In particular I would love to get some background info on this incredible piece, people's opinions on its significance, performance tips, and info on any particularly good recordings of it.
I have heard performances by Pletnev, Moravec, Arrau, Argerich, and Rubinstein – Rubinstein FAR outshone the others, especially in the doppio movimiento where his voicing is almost unbelievable – the melody is never lost amid the constant tangle of chords.
Would LOVE to read any comments, suggestions, or tips
Thanks, Chop

what do to with chopins nocturne, opus 48 no.1 August 02, 2008, 06:13:09 AM by frank_48
|
hi, i have currently hit a wall with this nocturne, most of you will probably guess that its the doppio movemento section, and you would be right. i just cant seem to figure out how to play it smoothly with both hands, i can play it ok seperate hands but its already taken a long time to get up to this point. does anyone think i should leave this piece and pick it up again later when my technique is more advanced or should i just keep working on it?

Chopin- Nocturne in C minor (48:1) August 23, 2007, 08:27:57 PM by thorn
|
I've been memorising this over the summer and i have a rhythmical question to ask about the 'doppio movimento' section.
there are triplets against quavers, but the 2nd quaver is notated over the final triplet suggesting that they aren't meant to be played as straight quavers. but at the same time they arent marked as triplets- here is an example to clarify what i mean:

so my question is should i play them as straight quavers or as if they are a crotchet and a quaver with a '3' bracket over them?

Chopin 48-1 Nocturne (c minor) September 12, 2006, 09:47:19 PM by violinist

Hello piano folks!
I got small hands for the piano 
I can only reach a ninth with some straining. Octaves are practically all I can do.
I've been wanting to do the Chopin 48-1 Nocturne (c minor), but I don't know if I can do the parts with the ton of octaves - louder parts toward the end. Any suggestions?
I've downloaded the music and I can play the first page, but the second page (C major) started to scare me with the large chords, maybe I need to stop.
Anyone play this? I'm sure it's popular.
Thanks for any help or tips on how to get thru this...

"I was in Poland the past summer to give 2 concerts. At the last minute they requested some Chopin, which I had not brought with me. So, I google-searched for classical downloads and found your site. I was able to print out excellent editions of the pieces I needed within minutes. To find the scores locally would have been inpossible as it was a smaller town, the nearest music store 45 minutes away."

"Piano Street has been a wonderful tool to me as both a pianist and a piano teacher. I can browse the collection for pieces I want to play and/or have my students play. The difficulty rating system that Piano Street uses enables me to search by difficulty level for pieces at my students' various playing levels. It is helpful that many of the scores include an audio clip of the piece being played. I have recommended to my advanced students that they also join Piano Street since getting sheet music from there is a much less expensive alternative to ordering and paying for the music.
