Notturno in Es-Dur, H 24 - Sheet Music for Solo Piano John Field

The Nocturne in E flat major by John Field - the Irish composer who founded the nocturne as a genre - is one of the first night pieces in piano literature. A dreamy melody sways over gentle arpeggios: a quiet, moonlit atmosphere that Chopin made into his own language. Anyone who loves Chopin will find the source here. Difficulty: medium (ABRSM grade 6-7). The piece demands flowing arpeggios in the left hand, fine pedal playing and cultivated sound awareness - ideal for students after 4-5 years of lessons and adults who want to seriously discover romantic piano music. Approx. 4 minutes playing time, 5 pages, easy-to-read notes and practical page turns - an edition that gives the work the space it deserves.
