Nocturnes op. 49

Dimitrije Buzarovski Nocturnes op. 49 (2000) Performed by the author The Nine Nocturnes for Piano are a part of the cycle Nocturnes (Vecherinki), inspired by Macedonian folk songs. The compositional technique used by Dimitrije Buzarovski is mainly based on Chopin/Liszt pianistic tradition. In  accordance with his multi-stylistic and multi-genre approach, he applies the techniques of impressionism, neoclassicism, jazz etc. Although this composition develops a plot from the first to the last nocturne, each movement has its own story and can be performed individually.  Beautiful Angja (mp3) Listen beautiful Angja to the sound of the tambura.

Her friends and neighbors came to congratulate her. Do not congratulate me, but ask my mother why she promissed me to someone so far away. Set oh, you bright sun, set and fade away !
