I'm not a musician nor a trained professional in the field but I am an avid listener of Chopin and have witnessed dozens of performances and listened to countless CDs. I've even had the privilege of staying at home with one of the "top 10" Chopin pianists. It's really unfair for anyone to play any classical work nowadays because listeners have likely listened to the very best in the world before. Anyway, I've been following this channel for quite some months now and I am deeply impressed at Tiffany Poon's subtlety and her combination of emotion and precision.
Thank you, miss Poon, for allowing us to watch you play one of my favorite nocturnes. I suspect that you will be considered one of the greats ("will be" because you're still young). On top of that, you also seem to be a very nice and generous person.
Luís Miguel Viterbo, very nice words about Tiffany, I have been a fan of her for some time too now. Just out of curiosity, may I ask in witch home of a top ten pianist you have stayed?
@jesper dan Andersen - Maria João Pires. I am friends with one of her daughters. I watched her live before I knew her daughter, and she was from the first moment one of the very few pianists who made me cry, and this happened every time I watched or heard her playing. It strucked some chord in me and I have no idea what exactly in her performance had this effect. Another pianist who always succeeded in that task was Maurizio Pollini, who was for quite some time accused of being too precise thus lacking emotion (he never missed a note and he wasn't theatrical but in my opinion his playing was definitely full of emotion). _(Note: I write in the past although I know Pollini still has a busy recital schedule. I happen to not having attended one of them for quite some years now though.)_
Luís Miguel Viterbo it must be fantastic to get to know Maria Joao Pires, I really like her, but haven’t been listening much to her yet. I remember a video where there is some confusion about which concert she is playing, but she comes out fine. Hope the best for you and your girlfriend. Yes I know what you mean by getting touched by listening to some musicians, (Tiffany is one 😭) I think it is the sincereness and the many hours of practice they do to perform the wonderful pieces for us. I also know of Maurizio Pollini, I saw an interview where Claudio Abbado was present too, who also makes me cry, when I see him conduct. I have no musical education, just love music and the last four years classical has become my absolute favorite.
Luís Miguel Viterbo How wonder full to stay at Maria Pires’ home. I truly love her lovely, gracious impeccable playing. Pires is a legend who I too dearly love. Her art has enriched my soul. Tiffany Poon’s musical sensitivity is touched me.
@ In all honesty, Tiffany's playing reminds me often Maria Joao Pires' - same elegance and sensitivity. M.J. Pires is much less known to the big music world than she deserves, IMHO.
Don't know what chopin was thinking when he was doing this piece, but it's just a perfect balance between peace, joy and a little bit of melancholy, at least for me.
I loved how you played this piece, congrats! 💚
Your hands look like they’re floating, yet the sound is so clear...
i got lost while listening and watching her hands softly with precision touching the keys
Her hands gesture of playing is a disaster for a piano student. Awful enough the girl is no future in PIANO
@@Dazhi1989 She uses gestures to feel the music more. It's a personal thing, and she has practiced in a way such that the gestures do not mess with her technique nor tone. Also, she has been practicing diligently from a very young age and has already experienced much success; how can you say she has no future with the instrument she continues to pursue?
@@Dazhi1989 there is no rigorous method for actually how to play the piano. The most 8mportant thing is to be able to feel the phrase and phrase endings, and being able to understand what the music is saying. There is so much more to music then just a hand gesture
@@Dazhi1989 the way Tiffany feels the music is very professional and clear. You can hear how she ends a phrase, the dynamics and the rubato, and how her sound is crisp and light during runs. That is what you want.
I really don't know what it's about you but every video that you upload sounds perfect to me. Not only technically, but there is no other way I would interpret the pieces. Your interpretations are just PERFECT to me.
Awww thank you
Same here! Especially Chopin.
Indeed. There's something very unique about Tiffany's renditions. Her expressiveness is mind-blowing
I agree absolutely!
@@thiagonastari2560 I so agree, the way she plays - absolutely divine!
This piece is just too beautiful to exist
It is not the same to hear a recording as to watch the pianist perform the piece. The performance itself is art. Watching Tiffany play evokes so many emotions, it is like she is the extension of the piano...the brain behind the mechanical hammers and strings...as a soul puts life into an otherwise lifeless body...
I just realized this was posted 3 years ago today. SO beautiful.
My favorite Chopin nocturne. Thank you
I have listened to this countless times. Might be my favourite piece ever >_
Thank you so much, Miss Tiffany - listening to you from Brazil!. This was 6 minutes of auditive bliss! Thank you for making this ugly and difficult world (often) a better place to live.
Chopin at his finest. Congratulations for such a heartful performance.
How do you keep your sound so heavenly light yet even and smooth?
Extreme strength gives the illusion of non-effort and allows for consistent light touch.
The only fitting quote is that of a Debussy performance review, by Alfredo Casella:
"he made the impression of playing directly on the strings of the instrument"
@HadOneTooManyBigBitesNowImAGorilla
And great technique as well of course
It's called PRACTICE
Practice hahah
Gentle, soothing, drawing me into blissful peace and contentment is how I would describe listening to Tiffany play this piece. But that is just part of the pleasure.
Watching her fingers float and dance gracefully over the keyboard adds to the above sensations from listening.
Thirdly, watching the graceful flowing and floating over the keyboard is like watching the exquisite motion of highly skilled dancers who put their heart and soul into their performance.
The combined effect of the above: mesmerizing.
This is my favorite Chopin Nocturne. Thanks for sharing!
It's raining with thunder, lighting, and winds here in Los Angeles right now, and I've always thought this performance would be perfect for that scenario. Turns out I was right. Thank you for this stellar work!
God bless Chopin and Tiffany Poon. Wonderful just wonderful!
Beautiful & Beautiful.
i’m playing this piece, and it’s my birthday. WHAT A GIFT😍🙂😀
WOW. this is pure joy, I rarely see Chopin played this finely. thank you so much for this. love from singapore!
Love the part from 0:44 - 01:47 the most！I compared different pianist’s interpretations of the same section. Turn out, I think this is the most sentimental version and it touched me a lot.
At the crux of this piece such a light-fingered interpretation is where we mortals can only dream of...
Somehow the TH-cam algorithm recommended your channel and I'm very happy to hear these performances. You are amazing! You must be an old soul to play with such depth and grace for your tender age. Bravo!
I am just astonished by the modulations going on in this performance. Thank you so much for posting.
So beautiful
The most beautiful version of Chopin pieces.
Fluidity. Beautiful.
My all time favorite performance of the nocturnes is by Brigitte Engerer. You are the first pianist who played this nocturne equaly beautiful to me. Thank you. I like the fact, that you never slow down too much. You always keep the pulse of the music steady. And you have a nice tone production and articulation. Maybe these are the reasons why I like your Bach playing too. I subscribed.
Bravo!. I have been working on this piece the last 6 months...Your interpretation sheds new light on how to understand this piece...your performance is inspiring...Thank you❤
Earth cannot hold Chopin. At the end, he rises up and floats away. This is my favorite of all his works.
Words are failing me to express my love and wonder for your music-making. Your playing of this nocturne is ethereal and passionate at once. Thank You.
This is one of my favourite interpretations of this recording and one of my favourite pieces! Your touch and tone control is just insane! It’s exactly how I would want interpret it and want it to be interpreted but much better!
I'm so glad I started supporting you on Patreon, your music so filled with emotions and so rich, truly capturing the composers spirit.
Absolutely beautiful Chopin composition so nicely played by Tiffany Poon. At the end I clapped, it was so good !!
How the hell is possible to compose such a beauty?I wonder every time...
Hard to not fall in love with this channel... Beautiful interpretation, just wow....
i find this to be the best interpretation of this piece; the dynamics and just everything about it is lovely. i find the way you play this piece perfectly! i listen to you play this piece at least four times a day, i can never get enough of it. thank you for playing such beautiful fine music, tiffany. i aspire to be as great and impressive as you are.
nice job Tiff! you are a truley inspiring member of our species, your sheer capacity for tender emotional expression when you play is just beyond comprehension
I'm drunk, it's 3:30 in the morning and this feels so soothing yet has strong sense of panache to it! There's just something about the way each note is pronounced, its a beautiful feeling ❤
Your interpretation in this one is one of the most interesting i've ever heard. Like, really. You gave such a gentle touch that made every phrase sound interesting and mature.
What is the kind of feeling you tried to achieve with your interpretation? Can you talk about the most challenging aspects that you faced to be able to get to the sound you intended?
By the way, congratulations, I think you are among the best!
Von welchem Himmel bist du auf die Erde herabgestiegen, eine weitere Träne!
You seem like a very happy and maybe even childish person on your talk videos, but when you play you are just something more than an ordinary human being.
Wow, I'm not even that big of a fan of Chopin, but this was just sublime.
Well that's the power ma boi Chopin
Your performances are all so beautiful. Listening to them heals my soul. Thank you for all you do!!
This is my favorite chopin nocturne. Thank you so much for playing so beautifully. This is truly captivating.

Thank you. One of the best performances I've heard. You are very light on the keys, I love it.

I saw this when I was young. Fell in love with the piece. I finally just finished playing this.
Beautifully played. Stupendous
Tiffany, this is one of my absolute favorite pieces, both to play and to listen to. I love your interpretation! Sensitive and elegant!
You really captured, understand, and express the story of the song. Each song you play.
Once again beautiful Tiffany and her delicate playing.Thanks Tiffany.
You play with such ease, how can it be so heavenly?

As a teacher/performer for over 30 years.... I.... I . . . I love you.. .
Beautifully played, so many thanks!
This is also my favorite nocturne of all ! love how you played
So sweet sorrow...I like your Chopin the most~Thank you very much.
But seriously, your pieces are awesome! I wish I was standing in that room with you sitting in front of that piano. Hearing these pieces in person must sound even better.
We all receive love and love, Chopin and Tiffany Poon.
At first I thought she was playing the piano, then I thought the piano was playing her, then I realized this was the first time I heard a relationship going back and forth between two entities. They are both playing each other!! I have seen and heard many pianists but none quite like this.
Thank you for playing this. It's one of my favorite pieces. So lyrical! I love the little romantic "duet" near the end. Good luck and I hope to see you play in real life one day.
love how you interpret the music!
Thank you for your music. It has made my learning of programming data analytics less painful!
Love performance, Lady. Just magician job, thank you Lady, with love from New Jersey, USA
The sound is clean and tranquil.

I just sit, pay attention and fly.... the world become perfect during the time you are playing.
