Need help...

on: March 24, 2006, 10:09:52 PM

Can somebody recommend either a Chopin or Liszt piece that is no harder than Moonlight Sonata (3rd mov't)?

Also looking for a modern piece easier than Moonlight. (maybe something by Prokofiev? or Satie/Scriabin?)

Also which of these should I play for my audition?

Invention No.1, Invention 13, Prelude + Fugue in F Minor (Book II), Prelude in D Minor (Book II). [choose 3],

Moonlight Sonata, Sonata in G Major (op. 49, no.2, both mov't) [choose 3 mov't]

I'm still working on the 3rd mov't so don't say the whole Moonlight plz

For the chopin piece you could try any of the Nouvelle Etudes.#2 is a good one with cross rhythyms.
