  • @Sunshine-jk
    Lifes been hard lately but the music and the comments relax me. To everyone who has been feeling depressed is having anxiety and a lot of panick attacks I hope there is atleast one day were you feel at ease in the future. Sending love.
  • @Kmnl200
    So calming and healing. There is no need to compare the musician with other more famous ones. Good music or art work are those that touch your heart and soul, not according to the musician’s fame. I put it on as background music all day long in my house when I am home.

    A peaceful and sweet afternoon, sitting inside the house looking at the garden, listening to birds chirping in the sunlight with a garden of flowers dancing in the middle of a light breeze. That's the feeling of listening to these nocturnes. Life is sweet and simple and everything is so calm that it feels like time has stopped.

    Until a few months ago I was obsessed with Chopin's nocturnes, now I have a new obsession... John Field's nocturnes.
  • @alvindimes4729
    I've never heard of this composer before, but my God what a talent, as another commentator has observed, I can see where Chopin got his inspiration. These Nocturnes are an absolute delight.
  • @TAT7.07
    Спасибо за удовольствие от такой прекрасной музыки. Просто кайф, в котором растворяешься. 🙏❤🦋
  • In 1804, Field made his debut in St. Petersburg at the home of Prince Golitsyn. Soon he won the fame of the best pianist and teacher in St. Petersburg. After concerts in St. Petersburg, which were held with great success, Field decided not to return to his homeland. In Russia, he became a popular performer and composer: since 1804, he regularly gave concerts at the St. Petersburg Philharmonic, toured other cities of the empire. Field had many students, in particular, A. I. Dubuc (with whom Field, given his special talent, studied for free), M. I. Glinka, A. N. Verstovsky, A. I. Villuan, A. L. Gurilev etc From 1822, Field lived in Moscow, moving among the Moscow musical bohemia; here he was called "Ivan Romanovich". Field was a frequent visitor to the then fashionable literary and art salons.

    Pure souls both, John Field and the pianist Jonh O'Conor as well. 💛
  • @lemenyves34
    J. Field is a contemporary of C. M. von Weber. He was born a full generation before Chopin, more than 10 years before Schubert, and about as much after Beethoven. His music is absolutely charming, but coming between such peaks as Beethoven and Schubert, it was difficult for him not to suffer from their shadows.
  • @eetoved1758
    The longer I listen to this the more peace it gives me. And peace is very hard to come by in my world. God bless John Field.
  • If you are reading this, it doesn't matter where you are right now on this planet, I wish you a wonderful night and a happy. peaceful life where all your dreams come true 💜

    このフリーを聞くすべての人が残った今年は、心配のない幸せで暖かい冬を過ごしてほしいです。
  • @federica5651
    I didn't know this composer before, and now I'm totally in love with his music!
  • To be honest, I haven't listened to Field's music until now and haven't heard much about him. I really appreciate that.
  • @volodsadov3522
    I heard this music after the war was started. For my soul it was like a medicine. Thank you.
  • @knyazheva57
    Ещё один из малоизвестных композиторов очень талантливый, но забытый, спасибо за то, что вспомнили о нем, музыка лёгкая,душевная, она проникает в тебя настолько гармонична и звучит в тебе, растворяешься в ней... 😇😇😇👏👏👏👏
