John Field
John Field was an Irish pianist, composer, and teacher widely credited as the inventor of the nocturne. While other composers were writing in a similar style at this time, Field was the first to use the term 'Nocturne' specifically to apply to a character piece featuring a cantabile melody over an arpeggiated accompaniment.
