Fauré: Nocturne in A-flat major op.33 No.3 Per Rundberg,piano

Gabriel Fauré (1845-1924): Nocturne in A-flat major op.33 No.3 played by Per Rundberg, piano.
As a man, Fauré was said to possess "that mysterious gift that no other can replace or surpass: charm",and charm is a conspicuous feature of many of his early compositions. His early piano works are influenced in style by Chopin, and throughout his life he composed piano works using similar titles to those of Chopin, notably nocturnes and barcarolles. An even greater influence was Schumann, whose piano music Fauré loved more than any other.The authors of The Record Guide (1955) wrote that Fauré learnt restraint and beauty of surface from Mozart, tonal freedom and long melodic lines from Chopin, "and from Schumann, the sudden felicities in which his development sections abound, and those codas in which whole movements are briefly but magically illuminated." When Fauré was a student at the École Niedermeyer his tutor had introduced him to new concepts of harmony, no longer outlawing certain chords as "dissonant".By using unresolved mild discords and colouristic effects, Fauré anticipated the techniques of Impressionist composers.
