Chopin Nocturne Op.9 No.1 - Paul Barton, FEURICH piano 

I've always much prefered No. 1 over the more popular No. 2. I love it's mysteriousness. I guess one of the main reasons why No. 2 is more popular is because it's a happy piece. I'll take mystery / melancholy over happy pieces any day though. Great playing as usual.

Honestly, I prefer this one over the more famous No. 2. While No. 2 is certainly beautiful, I think this is even better and often doesn't receive the love it deserves.

Always a favorite to play. My dad used to sleep to this while I play it haha

I love chopin for his more melancholic peaces mostly those in minor. Such as this or Walz in A minor

My favourite Chopin Nocturnes are this and Nocturne in C sharp minor.

Lovely interpreter, and lovely human being. Since I learned about his job with those blind Elephants, I admire and respect him much more.

Chopin puts in the mood where I can just sit down, doing nothing but living in the music. And to hear this beautiful piece on a beautiful piano is breathtaking. Great job Paul!

"This happens to be a nocturne. You know, Frederic-fucking-Chopin."

this is actually the most perfect improvisation of this piece that I could find at all. thank you for this gift

My favorite piece by Chopin. Good job Paul it sounds awesome!

What a performance again! Lovely to hear the spirit of Chopin in this remarkable recording.

Wonderful interpretation! Mesmerizing sound of that piano!

Beautiful rendition Paul! I have been chipping away at this piece for a long time. You have reignited my spirit and drive😅

What an amazing rendition to this piece! Hats off!

I am so happy to have discovered you. What pleasure you now bring to my life.

Exquisite…. I’ve just started learning this piece …. I look forward to the day I can put it all together and play with emotion .. etc … just lovely playing … thank you

Beautiful - I feel as though I never really heard the left hand part before, this really helps bring it out for me, thanks!

One of the best nocturnes, something very sensuous about its content, to me it almost defines the word elegance. Pure 19th century romanticism at its best. And amazing how it is not overdone or over embellished - just perfectly done.

There's one word to describe this: Beautiful.

Paul, you made the best performance of Chopin’s Nocturne Opus 9 N.1 EVER… Perfection is the word…. Congratulations! Chopin himself applause upstanding…. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

One of my favorite pieces of Chopin, a tutorial would be fine. I play this piece but would be happy to see your tutorial. Thank you Paul!

HELP, Paul! Struggling with this one. Would love a teaching video in slo mo for this piece. 🙏 Beautifully performed. I love the slower tempo you've chosen; too often it is played in a rushed fashion. 😍

You make it look so easy. Your performances are always superb. Bravo.XAngela

This is my favorite nocturne from the set. It compliments No. 2 very nicely with a very dark and solemn tone instead of one that is nostalgic and hopeful.

Oh how lovely to find another beautiful performance! I didn’t hold my breath like I did with the one last night- oh my that was amazing! However, this time, I just closed my eyes and went far away! Thank you so much. I am so grateful! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Love the camera angle. It must not be easy to set up this camera. Thank you.

Bravo, Paul! Thank you for this updated version of this lovely Nocturne. Like your previously upload from 2009, you take this at a perfect pace with sensible rubato and exquisite dynamics. Very inspiring and just an overall joy to listen to.

Wow Paul, I am amazed. I've rarely heard such an amazing performance. Absolutely beautiful.

One of the best (may be the best) versions that I heard so far. Thanks!

Fantastic and magic !!

Nice playing Paul. I am self learning this Nocturne right now. This is quite a challenge for me as I only passed Abrsm (Level 5) 28 years ago and ever since I have not been taking piano lessons. The appregios on the left hand and rhythm for both hands are difficult. I simply want to master the technical part before I can work on interpretation.

Don Paul Barton, Excelentes interpretaciones, Felicitaciones desde Santiago de Chile, Pastor Ramon Arriola.

Learned this piece awhile ago! So good to hear it again and fresh!

Grazie.

Love the sound of piano 🎹😍❤️

This piece seems to be so easy when you play it! Very good job, it's wonderful!

oh man its so calming.

You are a master I enjoyed this so much! Thank you.

Spasibo, Paul! 🎵🎼🎶🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹

Really beautiful playing.

I'm currently playing this for my level 10 RCM exam

beautiful, you played it at the right tempo, like Brigitte Engerer. she plays Chopin wonderfully.

Bellísimo... como siempre. Gracias Paul

Hauntingly beautiful.

amazing work. You play this piece with accuracy to the time period and use the fingerings in sheet music. I'm inspired to learn this piece awesome

Anyone else absolutely love 0:28?

beautifully played as always ❤

Thank you Paul!!! I'm learning this peace right now!!!

One of my most favorite piano pieces ever! Great playing and keep it up!

I really enjoy how you keep the movement flowing throughout filled with colour!

Today I was playing this to my dad because he was helping me with this song and when I finished playing he was literally asleep and snoring lol

this melody is in my heart 💖

That was really wonderful

Thanks for this nice piece! I am practicing this for my next week audition and find your way of playing more approachable than other I can find on net. Looking forward to more of your videos!

I love playing this piece

Esse é o meu noturno predileto. Você toca com muita expressão. Parabéns!

BRAWO PAUL ! ❤️❤️♥️

Amazing as always Paul.

dear Paul would you complete(introduce more) other nocturnes. Thank you for wonderful sharing.

Thank you so much! I am learning this piece currently.

I've really wanted to see you play this piece for a while! Beautiful performance :)

I think that with 9/1 and 32/1 you can put more of yourself into the Nocturne. They are designed more for individual interpretation.

Very well played. This piece is incredible. Had much struggle to solve the 6 against 11 and I can play this song, but mine sounds not as beautiful as yours.

If i may make a request. A tutorial on the poly-rhythms in this piece? 6 against 11 hurts my brain.

Beautiful.

Nice work, sounds really well! You make it seems so easy

Beautiful piece of music and played as always so well keep up the good work!... Kind regards WF. Robinson

Paul Barton, Splendid! I love your channel Paul. Greetings from Israel.

my favorite nocturn. I've noticed that many use different fingering especially in the left hand.

I can never get my right hand to independently cascade those runs while maintaining the rhythm on the left hand. am jealous of people who can play this with ease!

Thank you very much for the post. I am one of the viewers who requested this piece, which I have been struggling for quite a few years. Now I have another request: can you please do a tutorial on the triplets followed by a 20-plet on the very last page of the piece? I just can't fit those 20 notes played by the right hand against the 6 notes played by the left hand... and I can't get my right hand to play the 20 notes up to speed. Thank you again!!! Love the way you play the piece. :)

Sublime.

this is the best nocturno...i love feel air

You play it amazing😊. Thanks 👏👏👏

You play really well! You should be proud!

i always thank you

This's the closing piece at Hong Kong library

i had been hoping that you'd do this!! Yay!!

what a dream play this song like this

Thank you Paul. Your playing inspires me to learn more. Do you write music as well?

congratulations .... you are an artist

Fantastic performance, very near C.Arrau version

If you could do a tutorial on bars 3-4 (and simil.) that would be awesome.

Gran interpretación Paul! Una digitalización perfecta. Sería genial el nocturne op. 72 no. 1

Amazing 👏👏👏

you should do op. 48 no. 1

Love it

Tremendous as always Paul. I would love to hear you play op.55 no.1 in F minor

sublime.

Beautiful

I was just about to start learning this piece :D one of my favourite nocturnes and you play it absolutely wonderful 😊 This will definetely help me learning it, thank you for posting :)

Great as usual

How many times I need to play this to play so effeortlessly like him...no one knows

Strong requirements you should make a tutorial lesson as how to play 6/11 ,12/22,6/9 ,6/20😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Superb

until i heard u play this i only had ears for ENGERER playing it- bravo . BRAVO !!!!!!!!!!

Now I know why Mrs.George Sand was pursuing Chopin so badly,I would like do the same things!

Mr. Barton, you are great! I wish to pay you visit you some day.

How on earth do you play 11 against 6 and 22 against 12, I just CAN'T DO IT.
