Nocturne Es-Dur Op. 9/2

Chopin’s Nocturne in E flat major op. 9 no. 2 belongs without a doubt among the most beloved works of this genre, and perhaps even of Chopin’s entire oeuvre. Echoing the operatic style, the sensual bel canto melody weaves arabesques of tones that become more ornamented with each repetition.

The edition presented here is a simplified arrangement by Hans-Günter Neumann.
