Chopin - Military Polonaise

Both pieces will take a lot of time for me to learn them.

Bach: P&F in c minor, WTC BKI
Beethoven: Sonata in E Major, Opus 109
Chopin: Etude in A-flat Major, Opus 25 No. 1
Chopin: Scherzo in b minor, Opus 31
Rachmaninoff: Prelude in G Major, Opus 32 No. 5

Hmm...I never realized how "easy" the music I'm working on right now is until I bothered to type it all out. I really need to kick myself in the butt!

The Beethoven is not easy, and all of those are really cool pieces, except for the Scherzo possiby.l

Wow, slow time for me.

Saint-Saens G-minor Piano Concerto (1st movement)--Gotta lot of work to do on this before the audition at the end of January for my school's annual Concerto Concert in the Spring. It's fun to work on, and I'm learning better octaves and arpeggios because of it. Does anyone know how much harder the third movement is than the first movement? My teacher wants me to learn that one next.

Beethoven Tempest Sonata--First movement at the moment, just perfecting it and then I will move on to the other movements. It's funny how mastery of this peice is eluding me somewhat. I have a hard time not tensing up and fatigueing on the fast triplets. My technique is heinously lacking.

Bach G-major French Suite (no. 5)--Some of the movements are a tad dry, but the ending gigue is fun!


After the Saint-Saens is under control (hopefully soon), I think I'll be bringing back several previous peices in preparation to play at a rest home or something like that. I'm guessing I'll need around 45 minutes of music...yikes.
