Hi pianists!

How do you think about this programme?

Beethoven: 32 variations c-minor
Ravel: Valses nobles et sentimentales
--break--
Newwritten piece (lasts 10 min)
Schubert: Drei Klavierstucke D.946

Looking forwards about your advise or critiques!
:)

It is a nice program.
How about a different order:

Beethoven: 32 variations c-minor
Schubert: Drei Klavierstucke D.946
--break--
Newwritten piece (lasts 10 min)
Ravel: Valses nobles et sentimentales

Then we have german-classical before break, and more modern after the break. The Ravel valses are also more "easy listening" and good to end with.

I agree, with a reservation. I don't know exactly what these Schubert pieces are, but I'm guessing the Beethoven is more substantial, so I would put it right before intermission. Then again, I don't know really know what the Beethoven is, so you should probably disregard what I just said.
