Chopin Nocturnes Opus 9-62 Piano Sheet Music | National Edition 5A for Solo Piano | Urtext Piano Songbook for Advanced Players | Piano Book with ... / Serie A: Utwory Wydane Za Zycia Chopina, 5)

I like this Edition. I own most of the other standard and urtext editions. This one is based on the latest research and compilation of students of Chopin. In other words if you want fingering and pedal markings that would have been penciled into Chopin's students' music, then this is an edition to consider. It uses the fingering that Chopin himself likely would have used. If you've looked at other fingerings from other Editions then this may be somewhat different especially for contemporary pianists; that's just my view personally based upon how I've come to finger some of the passages. The bonus is that this corrects the notation issues from prior editions. The paper quality is good and the binding is sound. Couple this with some of the other Editions for your research into how you want to finger, and pedal, and interpret the Nocturnes. Recommended.

This edition is incredible. Just having the Eb Nocturne’s variations is great. Just pick a nocturne here and check with other editions, and you see so many changes in them- great to have and not ridiculously expensive!

Good quality, arrived on time.

Book arrived in good condition. However, it was missing the source and performance commentary leaflet which was the whole reason why I bought this. There is a free pdf containing both commentary for download from the official site with some googling.

One of the finest editions out there!

This is a great book, and this edition is better than Padereski!

the edition is incomplete. it came with the missing "Loose insert" that includes each volume of the PWN edition. In another order I bought the edition of the preludes and this edition came full, I can send you photo of it. I went to Chicago where they sent me their order, but I have already returned to Argentina. I would need to send the missing part of the edition to Argentina. I can also send a photo of the cover of the book where it says that it includes the missing part.

I know many have praised this edition, but it just flopped over on the piano stand. I could not get it to stay upright. I would have had to use clips to get it to stay. I struggled with it for a long time and eventually returned it and got the Henle, which stays upright perfectly.
