One of my favourite nocturnes: the middle section is very dream-like and complements the opening/closing passages well. Moreover, I think it's good to play forte when indicated in the score to give some depth to the piece (especially around the poco stretto bars). I feel that this piece could be longer as it has great ideas that could be developed further. Overall, I'm happy with this recording: keeping the LH steady with the lengthy RH tuplets and playing the delicate passages softly (although the dynamic range gets reduced when editing the audio).
