Music Guide: Nocturne in F major, Op. 15, No. 2 Frederic Chopin? I have this music guide pretty much done. But I don't know where each sections begins, I just have whats going on throughout the piece. I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I know its in ABA form.

I'm not sure which nocturne you mean.According to my book, op. 15 no. 1 is in F major and no. 2 is in F# major.They are both in ABA form, and it's simpler than you may think.In both pieces, the sections are marked by tempo changes.In F major, no. 1, the three sections are at the beginning, at Con fuoco, ms. 25, and at Tempo Io, ms. 49.Notice the rest after the dominant seventh in ms. 24. Douglass Green, author of Form in Tonal Music, would call this a "broken cadence."Also notice the French sixth in ms. 64.In F# major, no. 2, the three sections are at the beginning, Doppio movimento at ms. 25, and at Tempo Io on the upbeat to ms. 49.
