Chopin, the composer of numerous piano works, reinterpreted many genres, infusing dances like the mazurka and waltz with poetry and drama.
Chopin's music is an astonishing combination of classical form with melodic richness and fantasy.
The nocturne is a characteristic genre of romantic music, a type of lyrical miniature that stands out due to its original themes. The very word «nocturne» means «nightly.» The melancholic poetry of twilight, the elusive glow of the moon, or a raging nocturnal storm, shifting the boundaries of reality, transformed into visions shrouded in mystery, inseparable from the composer's personal emotions, from the mood that overwhelmed him.
