Peet du Toit #5820873. Published by Peet du Toit (A0.802588). The Nocturnes, Op. 9 are a set of three nocturnes written by Frédéric Chopin between 1830 and 1832, published that year, and dedicated to Madame Marie Pleyel (Belgian concert pianist). This nocturne has a rhythmic freedom that came to characterize Chopin's later work. Originally written in B flat minor.At the time of composing this nocturne (night piece), Chopin was experiencing an emotional time. He was parting from Constantia Gladkowska, a young singer, with whom he had been in love. So, it is a quiet and reflective piece - a soft, languorous melody with a kind of filigree decoration, where minor and major keys alternate.
