sooo simple..but i love it..i find myself loving the simplicity of this type of music...i care not to learn transcen. etudes..or the rach 3...hammerklavier...or the works of alkan or sorajbi...mind you..i love all this music..i actually have most of what i just named on CD's or Mp3's..but listening and playing are two different worlds to me..and this is what i love to play (reffer to link above)

just wanted to share my new finding

cheers

yeah it sounds great!

bartok wrote quite alot of easier pieces, check out the microcosmos

also, look out for recordings of schumann's album for the young, aswell as tchaikovsky's

great music doesnt have to be hard!
