John Cage - In a Landscape

[elevateme_returns]

Prokofiev Toccata op 11

[invictious]

Most of Debussy I guess..
I'd fall asleep.

xenakis herma

Prokofiev Toccata op 11

HAHAHA.

On topic, I recommend Le Gibet from Gaspard de la Nuit

[elevateme_returns]

i recommend chopin etude op. 10 no 12. its so soothing and peaceful.

[moi_not_toi]

I suggest 4' 33".
Nothing more calming than silence.

I suggest 4' 33".
Nothing more calming than silence.

I sadly have tinnitus...it isn't really that beautiful..
that ringing...

And the worst thing is that my synaesthesia doesn't change it into color!

Brahms Intemezzo in A is a classic everyone should play.
I put an Intermezzo on my website you might be interested in as well and a piece for cello and piano called Twenty-Six which is very Debussy-esque in parts

[retrouvailles]

Any of the Brahms intermezzos, Op. 117 or Op. 119 pieces should do nicely.

[elevateme_returns]

Brahms Rhapsody Eb major Op. 119

[dnephi]

Edit:
Debussy- Le Cathedrale Engloutie

@Retro, there are some which are fairly extroverted.  For instance, 119-2.

Back on subject, you might like much of Corigliano's Etude Fantasy

[mephisto]

Scrib sonata #7

No

You idiots this is a serious question put forward by a new member. Try to be serious for Gods sake.

I would recomend a Chopin nocturne or perhaps some of Catoire's calmer pieces.

[dnephi]

You're right.  Sorry.

A further suggestion would be much of Faure's output, which is not as popular as its quality deserves.  You'd enjoy even more much of Schubert's sonatas and miniatures, like the Moments Musicales

[ctrastevere]

A few that come to mind:

Chopin - Prelude Op. 28, No. 15 ("Raindrop")
Chopin - Many of the nocturnes. Take your pick.
Godowsky - Ein Dammerungsbild
Godowsky - Four Poems (excluding the third, "Adoration")
Kjerulf - Sechs Skizzen (Six Pieces), 6. Idylle
MacDowell - To A Wild Rose
Sorabji - In The Hothouse

[retrouvailles]

@Retro, there are some which are fairly extroverted.  For instance, 119-2.

True, but on the whole, both sets are quite light in nature and could still be seen as relaxing music. Not all relaxing music has to be a slow dirge.

On topic, if you want to go the way of Sorabji, check out his nocturnes: Gulistan - The Rose Garden, Djâmi, and Le Jardin Parfumé. However, these arent as "nice-sounding" as some of the Chopin nocturnes, but still relaxing, in my opinion.

[franzliszt2]

Alkan Symphony 4th movement

Hammerklavier 4th mvt

Tchaik 1

Rach 3

Prokofiev 2nd concerto , 7th sonatam diabolical suggestion, Toccata

Hungarian rhapsody no.2 horowitz arrangement

Liszt totentanz

Scarbo

ENJOY!!!!!

True, and they're all exceptionally difficult. This is why I recommend In The Hothouse, which is, though challenging, not too hard for the average pianist to play.

[soliloquy]

Pretty much anything by Ginastera or Finnissy   I'd probably stay away from Debussy though; his stuff can get kind of violent at times!

Do you guys actually think you are somewhat funny

Do you guys actually think you are somewhat funny

Fairy Fountain (Zelda):

[elevateme_returns]

[elevateme_returns]

no seriously id say the most calming piece i know is debussy reflets dans l'eau from 1st set of images. such a fine piece too

[ganymed]

I like the piano piece "song for guy" by Elton John , which is very calming ^^

[elevateme_returns]
