Chopin Nocturne in E-Flat Harmonic Discussion
Improvising on and expanding Chopin’s harmony.
This is a harmonic breakdown of Chopin’s Nocturne in E-Flat (Op. 9 No. 2). We look at the melody and harmony in the first 8 bars to see how Chopin constructed the harmonic progression and to see how we can alter and improvise over it like Anomalie did. The discussion does not cite Anomalie’s arrangement, but rather serves as an accompanying discussion to it by examining the original. Three versions of the excerpt are included, each one from a different viewpoint describing different details, along with an opening preface describing how to navigate the harmonic decisions Chopin made and the ones that you could make yourself. 6 pages including preface, PDF.
