Shostakovich: Op.87 Progression Thread

on: May 22, 2006, 07:34:45 PM

So, can anyone make a rough list of them from easiest to hardest?

Thanks.

Just play through them and see which ones you like. IF you come acorss something you don't think you can handle, find another one. heck there's 24 to choose from.
the dmin is probably close to the hardest in terms of pacing, sound and stamina.
