Chopin concerto no.2
on: August 25, 2006, 06:33:20 PM
How hard is this concerto compared to Grieg, Schumann Concerto and Saint-Saens No.2?  I am thinking of learning this after I am done with my current concerto.  Thanks.

Which one are you learing now?
I don't can give an answer to your question, because I doubt all the time which concerto I will learn. Now I'm playing Grieg.
May be off topic: which is harder: Grieg or Schumann?
