Chopin takes the poetry of feeling and the senses of technique to the level at which it belongs, and Bolet does it justice. Enough said.

one of the greatest interpretation ive heard of that nocturne.

No he isn't reading anything he's playing it by feel and emotion and catches it probably somewhere as close as humanly possible to Chopin as anyone can? Listen and understand and listen to the feel rather than making statements of cerebral nonsense!

I have alway's enjoyed Bolet. A great talker on music. I believe this video was produced in Australia so one of the last. I am not a musician or musicoligist I just enjoy what appeals to me. This is beautiful.

quelle bonheur !je ne trouve pas qu'il arpège de trop, sont rubato est excellent."se noie dans un rêve intime qui me semble loin de l'écriture précise de Chopin." Parce que tu etais dans la tete de chopin quand il composa cette nocturne ? tu pourra lire tous les textes tu ne saura jamais comment il la jouée lui meme, alors laisse la musique "libre" au lieu de la cantonner un 1 veritée.d'ailleur il preferais l'entendre jouée par Liszt ;)

It's too cerebral, there's no feeling in it. He's just reading the music.

I'm going with nigel on this one. although, i think tvzi erez does a beautiful version too. i probably prefer that one. but i love watching this guy play. it's so delicate. i've never seen someone play piano like that.
