Hello!
Someone knows who plays the Chopin's Nocturne op.48,1 in C minor in the movie "Mon pere ce heros" (1991) with Gerard Depardieu? (it should be written at the end of the film, in the credits)

I have never heard such wonderful Chopin before, I want to know who is that marvelous pianist.

Thanks a lot for any help!

It is Depardieu.

He plays it with his nose.

No, the credits say it's the late Alexis Weissenberg.

It was Gerard Depardieu 20 years ago, now it is Жерар Депардье.

The great early 20th-century composer Alexander Scriabin left us 74 published opuses, and several unpublished manuscripts, mainly from his teenage years – when he would never go to bed without first putting a copy of Chopin’s music under his pillow. All of these scores (220 pieces in total) can now be found on Piano Street’s Scriabin page. Read more
