Added by omicronrg9, 03 Oct 2022 Donate to Rodríguez García, Daniel–OmicrónThis is my monster; my precious twentieth nocturne, the one I value the most by far. At the time of publishing it I have already made three more —these are last three of this first set—, thus I can conclude that in my opinion no piece in said set surpasses this. I cannot find words to express the satisfaction I felt when I finished composing this, thus I will not. A 4-hand version of this nocturne will very likely be made in the future. Looking forward to see your criticism, feedback, opinion, etc. in the comments! | |||||

This is an intriguing piece that is based thoroughly on a theme, but that has many variations on that theme as well as copious dramatic moments or sections that are so full of life and energy and your quite unique talent at creating something completely original. Bravo on all levels and accounts. This is superb music created at a sophisticated level.
My one question has to do with calling this a nocturne. It does not strike me in that way, though, I am sure, the notion of nocturne can be interpreted many different ways. But whatever you choose to name it or call it, the composition itself stands well as a genuine work of art. Such talent!
There's an "A" idea which leads the entire piece, with 3 other main ideas following it and fusing together at the end, or that is what I tried.
It is not surprising that this does not sound like a nocturne (though I wouldn't qualify it as my "least nocturnal" piece in this set), it definitely doesn't resemble one from what I know. The only things that make me call it a nocturne are:
- I made it at night mostly.
- It reminds me various scenes and moments in which people to whom I've dedicated nocturnes meet and have a last chat before all that matters disappear, destroyed by a bright, giant and lethal falling comet.
- It concludes in a single movement and has no separation in parts unlike sonatas or waltzes correspondingly.
I am more or less sure that this would never seriously justify my work to be called a nocturne. Many of those which I published under that title here wouldn't be either, but I believe I have strong reasons to call them all nocturnes. The next one I'm uploading is probably even less "nocturne-like"... And 22 & 23 aren't too much of that either, hehe, at least according to the historical perspective.
Thank you for the feedback, Paul!
