Chopin - Nocturne in E-flat major (Op. 55 No. 2)



The Nocturne in E-flat major Op. 55 No. 2 is an otherworldly, transcendent late work by Chopin. While the texture and melody are in some ways similar to the earlier E-flat major Nocturne, the rich chromatic harmonies and contrapuntal details are hallmarks of the composer's emotional and compositional maturity. This Nocturne is much more difficult to execute than it sounds - especially the challenging trills towards the end!
