any schumann pieces...

[mr.beethoven]

are there any good schumann pieces that are melodically beautiful?

my current playing level is beethoven sonatas pathetique, tempest, fantasie impromtu and there abouts....

oh and mozart pieces around that level also.. thanks~

[hodi]

try his fantasy pieces op.12
no.4  has beautiful melodies.

[sharon_f]

The Arabeske is absolutely gorgeous. If you can play the Pathetique and Tempest it shouldn't be a problem at all. Also look at "Des Abends" from the Fantasiestucke and the Romance in F#.

[odsum25]

I find the Waldszenen as a whole to be truly beautiful and definitely worth a look. They are some of my favorite pieces to play and are true gems of the repertoire.  I wish more pianists would get past the relative technical simplicity and play this set.

[rafant]

Yes, Arabesque and the Kreisleriana No. 2.

Also take a look at the Romance Op. 28, No. 2.  It's a very beautiful piece, not too difficult, and often overlooked.

[Antnee]

I find the Melodies in his Papillons, Op. 2 extremely beautiful...

His Kinderszenen contains some precious pieces as well...

[mr.beethoven]

thank you all who replied~

im thinking about starting the arabesque after i finish the revolutionary etude...

[lava]

I've just posted a recording of Schumann's Intermezzo from Carnaval de Vienne:

It's nice to learn.

[janne p.]

oh and mozart pieces around that level also..

Fantasy in C minor, KV. 475

[Mozartian]

I find the Melodies in his Papillons, Op. 2 extremely beautiful...

His Kinderszenen contains some precious pieces as well...

-Tony-

Would like to second that. Kinderscenen also has some gems, as does Davidsbundlertanze, the Romances, and many others.

[Bouter Boogie]

His Fantasiestücke are beautiful

[presto agitato]

"Of Strange Lands and People". It is easy and sounds so sweet¡¡

His romance in F# is the most beautiful piece i ever heard.

"Forest Scenes" = 

[raffyplayspiano]

Papillons isnt too hard, and it has some great themes/melodies...a personal favorite, give it a listen, if you can.   

I also like the ABEGG variations, but that might not be a good candidate for a "beautiful melody" 

Scenes from Childhood is good...well, most of Schumann's music is!
