G. Henle VerlagNocturnes By Chopin / Zimmermann
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Henle's edition of the Chopin Nocturnes, edited by Zimmermann. For pianists who want a clean, scholarly text of the complete set rather than an anthology excerpt.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Serious students working the Nocturnes as a complete set
- Pianists preparing Chopin for exams, juries, or recital
- Teachers who require a reliable edition for lessons
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Beginners still reading at method-book level
- Shoppers who only want one or two famous Nocturnes
- Anyone on a tight budget — anthologies cost a third of this
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
12.25 x 9.25 inches
Full concert-score page size. Larger staves and wider margins, easier to read at arm's length on a music desk.
Detail 03
Edited by Zimmermann
One named editor prepared the musical text, so fingering and editorial decisions are consistent through the whole book.
Detail 04
Single-composer edition
The whole book is Chopin Nocturnes, so page turns and layout are planned around this repertoire alone.
Detail 05
$35.95
Priced above general anthologies. You pay for the edition quality and completeness, not the number of composers.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this include all the Nocturnes?
It is the Henle Nocturnes volume for piano, presented as the collected set rather than single-piece sheets.
02How hard are the Nocturnes?
They are advanced repertoire. You need solid independent hands, pedal control, and comfort with ornamented melodic lines.
03Why does this cost more than the piano anthologies?
It is a single-composer edition from a scholarly publisher in a full-size format, rather than a budget mixed collection.
04What page size is it?
About 12.25 by 9.25 inches, so it is a full-size score. Check that your stand and case handle that width.
