Nocturnes Op. 15 (Chopin)
- Nocturnes Op. 15 (Chopin)
The Nocturnes, Op. 15 are a set of three nocturnes written by Frédéric Chopin between 1830 and 1833. The third nocturne of the set, in G minor, is one of Chopin's most famous. Its playability has made it a favourite amongst students and masters alike. Both Ivan Moravec and Krystian Zimerman are acclaimed performers of this piece.

Nocturne in G minor, Op. 15, No. 3
The piece begins with a slow "lento" tempo and is written in 3/4 time. The right hand part is composed of simple eighth and quarter note patterns, followed by a chromatic rise and fall. The left hand part maintains quarter note patters to support the right hand, with pedal marks every six notes. The ending part of the piece is marked "religioso" and uses "legato" chords in the Right hand part. The piece also has incredible dynamic contrast, ranging from "fortissimo" to "pianissimo" (see Dynamics).
The piece departs from the ternary form usual in a Chopin nocturne. The concluding section is not only unrelated thematically to the opening one but in a different key (F major). The last four bars return to G minor, though the final chord is major, as is usual in a Chopin nocturne.
