From "The Pianist": Chopin Nocturne C sharp minor (Arjen Seinen - Piano).

This is the best scene of the entire movie. The light of humanity through a dark tunnel...

Chopin was the Greatest piano composer of the Romantic Era. A Polish refugee in France who's yearning for his beloved Poland inspired the most beautiful music ever written for piano.

A moment of beauty, and civility in a time of chaos.

When two enemies collides, but they share a common interest of whats makes them human, the war stops.

You also have to take into consideration that both of them have either only hear gunfire or can’t make any noise at all, so for the past 5-6 years this has been one of the most beautiful thing they have both heard

this film made me cry

Chopin was and still is from another world... purest beauty.

Chopin's music is beauty, beauty is Chopin's music

This movie earned its Oscar, for me this scene was one of the best of all time, even more with this magnificent music.

Just read the book by Szpilman. He said he played this nocturne on a piano that was suffering from the effects of cold and damp i.e. the action was swollen and stiff and the tuning out. I think any pianist who had lived for three years in the most terrible conditions suffering cold and extreme hunger would not have tackled the the G minor Ballade which is a much more challenging piece technically. Artistic licence a little wayward here. Incidentally the German officer was something of a saint he had helped others and his diaries were full of angst over things he had heard and witnessed. He unfortunately died in a soviet prison.

i had a professor for sociology in college & he gave us impactful movies to watch as assignments he gave us this one the pianist, gattaca, the crash and American beauty all those films made me cry badly i couldnt help but thank him for making them assignments they left a place in my heart

I remeber i was 10 when my mom took me to see this movie in the cinema. I apologise to all the people with me in the same room, they had to listen to 1 hour of my saddest cry ever...

One of my favourite movies - amazing how Adrien Brody learned piano for the movie; an absolutely beautiful piece :)

This movie's scene is truly amazing, but what really brings tears to your eyes, is this outstanding "Nocturne" by Chopin. This composer has a sensibility unique to none. FANTASTIC!!!

Imagine the contrasts - hell, pain and suffering, then this beautiful heavenly piece.

It's so sad, and life is so cruel sometimes. Hosenfeld didn't deserve to end his life in a Soviet prison camp.But his good acts were not in vain, as he is now known by everybody who read Szpielman's book or watched Polanski's movie

Не однократно смотрю эту сцену, и без слёз никогда не могу... Великая музыка и прекрасная игра почти уничтоженного войной человека..

Music brings peace. People cannot kill, fight, judge, hate or abuse the negative forms of any sort, if music is playing. Great movie, indeed.

Chopin the best pianist ever

I have always loved Chopins music.
