Yeah I quite like it! Id put Soaring first though and get proceedings off to a more lively start. I am tempted to say go Grieg and change the mood it has a good end too. The wieck could get to sound samey. I think youd get away with the wieck IF the whole rest of the programme was shumann devoted but as you move to Brahms not so sure - although there is the obvious connection brahms had with clara but with those brahms the performance could sound a bit toothless?! So i think id be inclined to go for grieg and move the schumann around a bit to channel the energy a bit better. Id learn a big piece of schumann next ie Fantasy/carnaval/kreisleriana or a sonata and work it so you can have a group of small pieces by schumann and the wieck in the first half - then maybe a really short piece of wieck in the second half followed by a substancial structure of schumann to close it all up. You obviously seem to enjoy the schumann/german romantic rep. Enjoy yourself!! ;D
