They are only occasionally related to the characteristic form of Field's or Chopin's Nocturnes (ornate singing over an accompaniment of arpeggios), but they are imbued with the same quiet, sorrowful evening poetry. Éric Heidsieck, very young at the time of this recording, imposed himself by a kind of instinct in these magnificent poems that are the nocturnes of Fauré. The French school has spoiled us with a number of first-rate performers, but it is without doubt Eric Heidsieck who best conveys the dreamy and poetic aspect of these nocturnes. It is a very personal interpretation and it works wonderfully.

Music can say much more than we can imagine. That's why we love her gentle touch. Thanks a lot for posting. (Very much appreciate this channel).

Je viens encore d'écouter les 13 nocturnes de Fauré par une vingtaine d'interprètes actuels et d'antant (de haute réputation souvent bien méritée), mais je reviens toujours à ceux interprétés par Eric Heidsieck, qui, à mon sens, traduisent de la façon la plus fidèle et la plus expressive, l'âme et l'intention profondes du compositeur. Pour moi, le tempo appliqué est chaque fois celui qui convient, et que Fauré devait souhaite. Les nuances, du pianissimo au forte le plus intense, sont judicieusement appliquées. Les ralentis et accélérés sont toujours bien situés et sans exagération. Le sentiment y est tellement émouvant. La ligne mélodique, parfois si discrète et difficile à rendre de façon appropriée chez Fauré, se ressent parfaitement dans une clarté admirablement distillée. Et puis, "cerise sur le gâteau", pas une seule note de musique, interprétée par Eric Heidsieck, n'est étrangère à la partition de Fauré (ce qui n'est pas toujours le cas chez d'autres interprètes). Bref, je ne me lasse pas d'écouter et de me référer à ce trésor d'interprétation des 13 nocturnes de Fauré par l'interprète de référence plus que supérieure qu'est l'excellent Eric Heidsieck. Personne d'autre n'est encore arrivé à rendre ces belles pages de musique fauréenne aussi justement et intensément que lui, à mon humble avis bien sûr!

FAURÉ , comme DEBUSSY, puis SATIE , nous envoûtent par cette nouvelle sonorité d'une série, un peu déstructurée, de notes délicieusement voyageuses ! Cette musicalité douce prête à la rêverie, au lâcher prise... ces merveilleux compositeurs nous laissent ces plaisirs pianistiques qui nous aident à surfer sur le marasme délétère ambiant... Merci aux pianistes qui restituent si joliment l'âme de leurs compositions ... 💞💝💞♾💞🥰

Faure, to me, embodies the light touch of the piano which is reminiscent of my mothers touch when playing, when I was a child. I say this to just try speak to those who find difficulty or hardship, as the music brings a feeling of diversion in chaos, which is a form of bringing back order and direction, something which chaos cannot endure.

This is an extraordinary pianist -Erick Heidsieck plays these pieces brilliantly.

Amen!! Thank you for waking us once again to see an marvelous day, another week, another blessing, other gift, other lesson, and teaching. This morning Lord order our steps. Let thy will be done. God I know that you are near to the brokenhearted. Comfort the heart of those who are broken. Heal, mend, fix, restore so that many can return back to you as their first love. There is nothing Father you cannot do; because you are the Father of everything that we need and want. Thank you Lord for all that you have done and for what you continue to do in our lives. Help us Lord were we may lack, come up short, and where we may not understand. Blessings to you my brothers and sisters may your journey this week be filled with laugher, joy, peace, and calmness despite of everything that is going on. Please be safe, courageous and encouraged out there. Love you with the Love of God.❤💕🙏🙏 🙏😇

Quand le monde fléchit autour de soi, quand les structures d’une civilisation vacillent, il est bon de revenir à ce qui, dans l’histoire, ne fléchit pas, mais au contraire redresse le courage, rassemble les séparés, pacifie sans meurtrir. Il est bon de rappeler que le génie de la création est lui aussi à l’œuvre dans une histoire vouée à la destruction 🐾😺

Erick Heidsieck moves us into a far realm of reverie with these flowing, indescribably beautiful Faure nocturnes. Thank you for posting.

موسيقى تؤكد تجلي الرومانسية بامتيز فيه وفي جيله .... شكرا لامتاعنا بجرعة فنية عالية ، و لا ننسى تألق عازف البيانو .

I first discovered Faure when I was in a choir class and we sang his Requiem. Then I discovered the rest of his work. Gorgeous and dreamy.

Transcendent, mellifluous, dew drops in the morning...wow

Thank you Gabriel Fauré and Érick Heidsick !

My love for Faure’s Nocturns is higher the mountain and deeper than the sea Faure's Nocturnes are beyond description

Rimango sempre attonita davanti alla mancanza di commenti in lingua italiana. In questo immenso e pur piccolo mondo ci sono alcune parole della mia amata terra che hanno raggiunto una dimensione mondiale: Bravo! Così si acclamano i grandi in tutti i teatri del mondo. Allora perdonatemi questo commento nella mia lingua natale. La lingua di un paese che tanto ha dato alla musica. Fortunatamente la musica non ha confini, li scavalca e li demolisce. Amo Fauré da sempre ed ogni volta è un'emozione forte, intensa. Bravo!!!!

Merci Eric ! je n'oublierai jamais votre présence au sein d'ALBRET MUSICAL en Haute Lande. La forêt toute entière s'en souvient encore.

My first time listening to Faure. I like very much what I'm hearing.

Beautiful music, exquisite performance. Thank you ❤️

아름다운 피아노 연주곡 잘 들었습니다~감사합니다~🎵🎹🌿🍀☘🌹🌹☘🍀🌿❤❤수고 많으셨습니다~☕

I really enjoyed Faure and Eric Heidsieck. I don't have many opportunity to hear French music. thanks for upload❣️

Just love it. Thank you.

Wunderschöne und elegante Interpretation dieser kurzen doch perfekt komponierten Klavierstücke in verschiedenen Tempi mit klarem doch zugleich anmutigem Anschlag und mit künstlerisch kontrollierter Dynamik. Wahrlich intelligenter und unvergleichlicher Pianist!

One of the best recorded performances, if not the best, of the Op.73. Here, Heidsieck gives the last variation a chorale and religious quality that reminds me, inevitably, of Bach. Great great recording.

Definitely the best interpretation of Faure's nocturnes! 😍

Thanks so much for posting.

Very lyrical, beautiful playing

Magnificent performance here, both the music and its execution.

Peace and love in the world✌

Without doubt some of the loveliest examples of this genre that I have ever heard. Beautifully and enticingly played. Thank you.

Magnifique, merci Érick

Delightsome . Im entranced . Bravos!

Merci pour ces notes superbes !

The​ lyrical Op.​63​ is​ very​ nice​ly​ performed.​ Thanks​ for​ sharing​ this​ treasure​ trove​ of​ an​ underrated​ artist.​ I​ must​ come​ back​ often​ to​ Faure's​ music.

These are most beautiful piano works.

Apart of Madame Thyssens-Valentin interpretations this is by far the best playing of those nocturnes I have ever heard. Thank you CM/RR.

Exquisite Fauré, thanks.

Nunca me conformó del todo la música de Fauré, pero estos nocturnos son deliciosos, la luz inefable de la luna me acompaña mientras los escucho, mágicamente me acompaña..

Great composer. Great work. Great performance. Thumbs up. Hats off...

Fantástico!

Muchas Gracias.

Merci beaucoup!

have only listened- so far - to the first two pieces - but this guy can REALLY play! I love Faure and am looking forward to hearing more of these stunning and sensitive interpretations, showing both the dreamy qualities of the music and the robust, passionate aspects too. Bravo!

So nice like a lullaby.

I was introduced to this by UK radio station Classic FM. Sublime

"It is without doubt Eric Heidsieck who best conveys the dreamy and poetic aspect of these nocturnes." It is fascinating to compare the brilliant recordings Heidsieck, Jean Doyen and Thyssens-Valentin made of the Faure Nocturnes - 3 GREAT Faure masters at work. And it light of what I heard from comparing the 3 that I personally differ slightly from your comment quoted above. I would rather say that Thyssens-Valentin best brings out the dreamy aspect of the nocturnes (although not lacking at all in poetry), while Heidseck best brings out the poetic aspect (although not lacking in the dreamy aspect as well). As for Doyen- he best brings out the inner turmoil and fire of the pieces. Just wonderful to here these 3 great masters each giving us something slightly different yet magnificent in these masterpieces. Would not like to be without any of them in my collection. Thanks for making all three available for us of to investigate and compare through Reference Recording.

Beautiful.

New to me.

Awesome ! Thanks for sharing :-)

Thank you so much ♡☆I love classical music ♥️

Fauré's 179th birthday is approaching. It will be in May 12. So form today May 9 to the 12,I will be listening to his Nocturnes 🎶 🎵 🎹

Thank you

Magnifique, merci beaucoup

That was great

Such a underrated master Faure

Compositor superlativo, de sensibilidad a flor de piel.

Very beautiful! It makes me curious about his other performances, of for instance Chopin.

Gabriel Faurré è un grande musicista che , a pari di César Franck e di Gounod (non fosse altro che per il Faust) meritano di essere ricordati, mentre tra i "grandi, vengono spesso appena accennati nelle varie Storie della musica. Questi notturni in Do diesis minore ( con quattro diesis nell'armatura di chiave) offrono una sensazione della profondità della notte con tutte le sue "nunces". Pur nell'assoluta originalità, si ascolta , da lontano ma ben percepibili, echi di DebussY e , per le variazioni, la grande maestria di Bach (Variazioni Goldberg ) e , soprattutto di Beethoven (Variazioni su un valzer di Diabelli), Naturalmente, parlando di notturni non è possibile non rievocare la grande ombra celestiale di Chopin. Ringrazio per la bellezza del concerto.

This is exactly what the doctor proscribed! 🕊️❤️‍🔥 Thank you 🤗💕

Fouré's music presents a very agreeable and accessible side of Impressionism.

Спасибо!

A guy commented in another video about Chopin, John Fields, and this guy being his facotire. I am so grateful to him. Never heard of this guy before.

Watched this video 10 times!

Gracias

amazing

Simplesmente perfeito

Maravillosos, cada nocturno es una joya de pasión y lirismo.....🙌🏻

one of the geatest living pianists

Meditation, cristal clear meditation.. Structurally impecable. Fingers may touch the tecles´ grand lake, but the heart is away. Exactly wjat we need here.

I ADORE READING

Quasiment du jazz sublime

J'ignore pourquoi, ces Nocturnes de Fauré, joués par Erick Heidsieck, font ressurgir les heures de mon enfance.

The Variations are very fine.

I guess I always preferred the early nocturnes. Especially the second. Oh... so gorgeous!!!

Recently I've been playing this on heavy rotation because it's so unobtrusive and pleasant to listen to.

СПАСИБО

I usually group John Fields , Chopin, and Faure together in my nocturnes collection !

되게 정갈한 피아노 곡 💕💕

Quieta y ligera queda mi alma...

音楽のほとり、強さではなく、弱さではなく、寄り添いつつ、励ましつつ、可能である方向へ、・・・空と湖とイワツバメの方へ、感情を包むのは精神であり、精神は濡れた草の葉の露を求める。

The 13th nocturne is achingly beautiful.

The etherial beauty of Faure's Nocturnes. Like Chopin and Field before him with an almost Debussy-esqe touch.

after thi interpretation i do have to reevaluate faures piano music. i had a set, but it never appealed to me. i found mr heidsieck in hisinterpretations really outstanding. alas, there is little tobe found

Hermosa música y conmovedoramente bien interpretada. S. Urrutia.

Quelle véhémence, dans le n°12 !

Wonderful - in composition and interpretation. Do you have more music by Fauré? I prefer videos

interesting, it reminds me in some parts of some of the Liszt's consolations

❤

I would like to ask to the listeners to pay a specific and - as far as possible " objective" attention to the nocturns 2 to 5, too often despised, Fauré being considered here as a poor "follower" of Chapin. Follower, perhaps; but an awesome and mandatory follower, who had an undisputable added velue due to an unique personal inspiration, gift, flavor and handicraft writing. ❤❤❤🧡🧡🧡💛💛💛🧡🧡🧡❤❤❤

Thanksfully !!!!!🙏💝 Sooooo beautiful !!!!!🙏💝

great and helpful comments-just don't want to join the''sad" stigma but maybe am eligible for the "alternative to chaos" group

❤Una caricia para el alna🇺🇾🥰

OMyGod....that #6 KILLLLLLLLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a puzzle to me that these pieces are not better known and more often performed.

Éric Heidsieck (born 21 August 1936 is a French classical pianist. See/Read: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89ric_Heidsieck

Never I haven't heard such triste, sad Nocturnes! Possible, Maestro wasn't happy, and Pianist?
