Can anyone suggest a moderately (not too) difficult but effective modern piece, about five (or more) minutes in length, which would be appropriate for a student who can play Schubert's Impromptu no.1 in C, Chopin's first Polonaise in C#, and the easier Beethoven Sonatas?
Maybe something in between the level of Claire de lune (too easy) and Ravel's Sonatine (too difficult).
Please consider Prokofiev, Debussy, Ravel, and any later composers -
Thank You!!!

Just for your info, you don't need to post the same request in two different boards, it will be seen by everyone.
