Constructing a Recital

[lours]

Hi!
I have the opportunity of playing a recital.
But I don't have enough pieces, so I search some works.

Now, I have some works ready ( but I may not put all in my recitals )
Chopin - Fantaisie-Impromptu
Liszt - Liebestraume No.3
Sibelius - Romance
Beethoven - Moonlight Sonata
Albinoni - Adagio
St-Saëns- Aquarium
Rachmaninov - Prélude 2 ( don't remember the opus )
Rachmaninov - Prélude 5 ( same )

In fact, I search some emotionaly-powerful pieces : Tragic, sad, powerful, dark, poetic... 

But I don't know pieces, nor composers  that I have those benchmarks,

Can you help me ?
All suggestions are welcome

Thank you!
Best regards,
Lours

Out of those, Moonlight Sonata is the biggest piece, so I would put it at the end.

Learn a Bach prelude and fugue, and a short work by Mozart or Scarlatti, and put them at the front. Then, after that:

Liszt
Sibelius
Rach preludes
Moonlight

And do Fantasie-Impromptu for the encore.

Oh, Thank you !:)
Good organization, I'll adopt this.
I'll search some shot works.

I see you have no Scriabin ... so maybe the Op.8 no.12 would be good for you! I think it has all the qualities you listed, and it is short, but challenging. I would put that after the Moonlight Sonata tough. Or if you don't like the idea, JUST before the moonlight sonata.
