The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street
In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

Chopin Preludes
on: February 23, 2006, 02:40:14 AM
I have a question. If I wanted to master all 24 of Chopin's Preludes (Op. 28) in the manner that many have suggested (like with the 100 pieces you want to learn), what would the order be from easiest to hardest? A general opinion would be helpful. My personal opinion of difficulty is:

7, 6, 4, 20, 3, 2, 15, 13, 1, 14, 17, 18, 11, 23, 21, 9, 10, 16, 19, 22, 5, 8, 12, and 24


I'd like some input, please.

4, 6, 7, 20 are the easier ones imo (not in any order).

Then 9, 7, 2, 15 maybe (again, not in that order).

16, 24 seem to be two of the super ruff ones, maybe leave those until last!
