Chopin’s Nocturnes are considered to be the very finest short pieces for piano. But why? First, their song-like nature. Second they’re emotional, they wear their heart on their sleeve. Third, they’re short, sweet and relatable. You don’t need to sit through an hour of something to get to the point – they’re bite sized.

Tonight’s concert includes No. 2 from his Op. 9 collection – possibly the most famous of them all, used in films ranging from A Real Pain to The Truman Show via TV series like The Simpsons. Plus we have No. 2 from Op. 27 – chilled and velvety smooth, like a certain brand of chocolate, and No. 1 from Op. 48, an explosion of grief and tragedy.

Tickets – £5.00 to £31.00
