The Nocturne is one of the most popular and beloved forms of music. Yet, many of us today do not know the name of its creator: John Field. Born in Ireland, Field lived during the same period as Beethoven, and his musical legacy has influenced not only Chopin but also generations of composers up to the present day. “By recording this album, I hope to share the story of this historically important composer and to encourage listeners to discover the origins of the Nocturne.” Alice Sara Ott Reviews The Times 4th February 2025 “Field’s more whimsical offerings have a playful spirit all their own, with memorable melodies regularly peppered with decorative runs somewhat akin to whorls of icing sugar enthusiastically squirted over a cake…Ott’s playing can just occasionally seem too neatly manicured, but her heart is always in the right place. So are her fingers. – 4 out of 5 stars |
