A piece to choose
on: December 18, 2007, 07:21:28 PM
Hello,
I have to choose a piece and study it by myself. I have 3 weeks to learn it, but I don't know what piece to choose. Maybe you can help me with that? The piece should be for pianists who have played the piano for 5-7 years. I've searched, but haven't found the right one yet.

I think we need a little more information. What occasion are you preparing the piece for? What was the last piece you learned? What are some of your favorite pieces? Are you studying with a teacher or on your own?

I have to learn this piece by myself, not with teacher. I'm going to play it in my music school. The last piece that I played was Grieg's piano sonata. I like many pieces, but I don't know if I can learn them with 3 weeks. The piece can't be long, 2 pages is good. The biggest problem is that I don't want to choose a hard piece to learn. It should be easy to study and play.
I looked that here are levels for pieces, and I want to ask how big is the difference between two levels?

Who don't you choose one of the shorter pieces by Chopin? One of the preludes might be a good idea, or perhaps a waltz or mazurka.

When you earnestly believe you can compensate for a lack of skill by doubling your efforts, there's no end to what you can't do.

I would play it safe with a movement or two from any Clementi Sonatina. Three weeks is very little preparation time for a public performance.
