The Nocturne in D♭ major, referred to as Nocturne No. 8 in the context of the complete set of Chopin's Nocturnes, is one of Chopin's more popular compositions. It is initially marked as lento sostenuto and is in 6
8 meter. It consists of two strophes, repeated in increasingly complex variations. The piece is 77 measures long.

Blair Johnston calls the main cadence, near the end of the piece, "one of the most glorious moments in Chopin's entire output".[4] Johnston also calls the piece "one of [Chopin's] most graceful essays in fioritura ornamental practices".[4] Huneker states that the piece "really contains but one subject, and is a song of the sweet summer of two souls, for there is obviously meaning in the duality of voices."[7] The piece contains a harmony of broken chords which is played with the left hand, a habit Chopin had when composing his nocturnes,[8] while the right hand plays the main melody, often with the addition of a second voice. Various sections consisting of grace notes and polyrhythms add to the delicate and somewhat melancholic mood that the piece conveys.

The piece has occasionally been featured in popular culture, such as in the 1977 film The Spy Who Loved Me,[4][9] the 1998 Russian film The Barber of Siberia, and the webcomic Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal.[10].
