| Fryderyk Franciszek Chopin(March 1,1810-October 17,1849)was born in Warsaw,Poland.He was a great composer and pianist in the 19 th century and the most important in the history of Polish music.He is also one of the most influential and popular piano composers in history.Chopin devoted his life to piano creation and was known as a "piano poet".Nocturne,which means "music at night",is a unique genre in romantic music.It generally refers to lyrical instrumental music with a quiet temperament and a meditative personality.Chopin’s Twenty-one Nocturne is the most wonderful set of treasures he left in his music creation.Chopin’s Nocturne creation was influenced by the Irish composer Field,but Chopin did not imitate Field,but took his own path.Chopin’s Nocturne has a beautiful melody,colorful texture,and rich and profound ideological content,which inevitably brings people some meditation.Chopin Nocturne Op.48 No.1,written in 1841,is one of Chopin’s masterpieces of maturity and the most special of Chopin’s twenty-one nocturnes.This nocturne has changed Chopin’s previous style: it is neither as sweet as E-mint major nor as gorgeous as B-mint major.On the contrary,this is a serious and heavy lament that is unbearable.It is one of the most dramatic and artistic works in the Chopin Nocturne collection.It is also a treasure in Chopin’s Nocturne.This article will elaborate on the structure,texture and melody creation characteristics of this nocturne in detail,and analyze the rhythm and speed,melody lines,touch keys and timbre,the use of pedals,and the processing and expression of emotions in the performance.I hope that through this research analysis,I can have a deeper understanding of this work and apply the research results to piano performance. |
