About

‘Some of the finest operatic arias ever written’ is Stephen Hough’s brilliant characterization of the Nocturnes, one which holds the key to his intensely lyrical interpretations of these most perfect of bel canto masterworks.

    10 Best Classical Albums of 2021

Christmas 2021

the great interpreters of this music never confuse the melancholic with the sentimental. Stephen Hough is even more ‘objective’ than most while bringing pianistic poise to everything and breathing with lines that trace their ancestry to the bel canto aria.
5 out of 5 stars

December 2021

The results overall are occasionally astonishing, often thought-provoking and never less than interesting...a release that neither students of Chopin nor lovers of fine piano-playing will want to miss.

12th December 2021

one of the British pianist’s most personal discs to date.
