Chopin - Nocturne No. 20 in c-sharp minor KK IVa Nr. 16 (SLOWER Tempo)

My trills are terrible because of my fibromyalgia, but what else is new. The tempo is slower than usual on purpose. The lines still carry through, and it works; it just creates an extra challenge!

***********************
I am a former professional pianist, educator, collaborator, and composer forced into early retirement due to chronic and unpredictable health issues.

Now I spend my time researching and recording modern classical piano music that hasn't yet been recorded, and I also enjoy making the best out of "easier" pieces from the canon. I will present showy pieces as my health allows, but my current health and endurance typically limits me to early-advanced literature.

I record for YouTube simply as an excuse to keep learning music until it's polished and presentable, and if people want to listen and watch, then that is icing on the cake! Outside of YouTube, I teach intermediate/advanced adult hobbyists at the piano.
