A fact from Nocturnes (Chopin) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 11 June 2009 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Chopin's 21 nocturnes generally feature ternary form, a melancholy melody and a broken chord bass line?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2009/June.

Sound file for Nocturne no. 7 defective.

I notice that the sound file for the performance of Nocturne no. 7 in C-sharp minor, Op. 27, no. 1 is defective - presumably it has been corrupted somehow. Not only is the opening of the piece cut off so that you start hearing part-way in, but the end is cut off, too - well before even the half-way mark in the piece.

I presume it is intended to be complete, as all the other Nocturnes have complete performances in the same table. The complete piece should be in the vicinity of 5 or 6 minutes long.

Anyway, if anyone knows where these files came from and can obtain a complete version for this Nocturne, it would be good if they could please upload it in place of the fragmented file that is present now.

Thank you. M.J.E. (talk) 10:55, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
