I know it may sound cliche, but I still hold the opinion that Chopin's Nocturnes are some of the best solo repertoire--not only for piano--but just in general for chamber music. They're very direct and beautiful and call for various moments in my life in which words fail (but that's why I'm listening to music in the first place). I'm constantly interested in what Chopin had to say in each one, so I wanted to make a thread to discuss them.
What are your opinions on them?
