What's the longest piece you've played for a concert?

[Bouter Boogie]

So what's the longest piece you've played for a concert and how long was it?

Mine is Scherzo op. 31 nr. 2 - Chopin It's not that long (about 10 minutes), but whatever

[dikai_yang]

hmm.. liszt sonata in b... ~30 minutes...
shortest piece... liszt trsendental etude no. 1, ~5x seconds

[moose_opus_28]

Longest single movement would be the Bach-Busoni Chaconne in d minor.  Beethoven Sonata Op. 27 No. 1 is probably longer though.  Shortest....some Grieg lyric piece ages ago.

Schumann - Papillons

Beethoven Tempest 1st Movement, but i strecht it out on the slow parts, and tried to catch up on the fast ones
difficult thogh to play over 10 minutes without a break and not loosing concentration, when you re not used to it .

Concertos are long but they're segmented, you get to rest, except in the Rachmaninov 3rd, where there is hardly any rest at all. I feel that long solo pieces are more difficult than Concerti . Concerto playing is very glamorous but solo playing is more exacting (Horowitz quote).
