Frédéric Chopin
Chopin's Nocturne in B-flat Minor, Op. 9, No. 1, composed in 1830, is one of the earliest works in his Nocturne series. These pieces were inspired by the Irish composer John Field's nocturnes and the bel canto operatic style. Chopin's Nocturne in B-flat Minor is celebrated for its lyrical and expressive qualities, as well as its ornamentation.

Join Claire Huangci for a look at Chopin at his most soulful in this in-depth lesson on his first Nocturne in B-flat minor, Op. 9 No. 1. Huangci has lived with Chopin's Nocturnes since she was a child, much the same way Chopin himself lived with the Nocturne genre his whole life. Chopin begins his first Nocturne with one of the most intoxicating melodies he ever composed – the start of a brooding bel canto aria. Huangci shows how your touch influences the phrase, and gives tips on controlling the left hand underneath the right hand's ornamental filigree.
