I have recently scanned a lot of classical/romantic ditties and posted on pianophilia.

None of it has probably been played for 100 years and just about all can be played by people with average abilities.

Also, check the Salon thread on the same site.

You do have to register old chap.

https://www.pianophilia.com/pun/

It is the best site for the "unusual" and freshly scanned scores on the internet.

very cool, thal.
i was just wondering about alternatives to a 19th century music recital, that will include hardcore mainstream (chopin's opus 38, brahms' 119). anyway, i really want to have something unusual, to add a bit of salt.
thanks a lot, as usual btw.
best!

Some easy, unknown or little known, gorgeous pieces that I love:

I don't think you can get more unknown than Alfredo D'Asdia. His Largo is beautiful.

Henselt's Little Waltz, Op.28 No.1 is pretty easy.

Blumenfeld's Preludes, Op.17 Nos. 11 and 21 are on the easy side.

His 24 Preludes Op.17 rival Chopin's in loveliness.
