Just out of spite - Am I ready for X?

[invictious]

Just to spite everyone, I am going to drive everyone up the wall with this question:

The last few pieces I learned were:

1) Moszkowski - Etude no.6 in F major
2) Liszt - Liebestraum no.3 (no please..hackneyed enough)
3) Chopin - Fantaisie-Impromptu (don't ask)
4) Scriabin - Etude op.2 no1 and a bunch of preludes from op.11
5) Beethoven - 'Moonlight' + 'Pathetique" sonata (whole thing) (also overplayed to death, again don't ask)

Which of the following pieces am I ready for?

1) Chopins Ballades/Scherzo (please specify)
2) Scriabin Sonata no.5
3) Vers La flamme
4) Prokofiev Sonata (please specify)
5) Liszt Mephisto Waltz / Hungarian Rhapsodies (HR)


or anything overly overplayed (pun+alliteration intended).

Well, just to spite you I don't feel spited.  And, to double spite you I will proceed to whistling whilst not answering the question with any form of what I suspect you would like.

[general disarray]

I think Karli's got the right approach here.

I don't feel spited either.  If you choose to learn rather difficult and cliched compositions, well, then be our guest.  One must master the conventional repertoire, of course, I suppose.

But what about the underplayed composers?  Do we have to hear more Scriabin and Prokofiev when the sonatas of Samuil Feinberg, for one, are so underplayed?  Chopin and Liszt are beyond reproach, but who can hear another Ballade or HR?  What about York Bowen? 

[minstrel]

I wouldn't say you're ready for any of those pieces.

[pianisten1989]

I don't think you're ready for any of those pieces yet... Which techniqual exercieses do you play, if any? That kind of demends as well. And did you have trouble with learning aything of what you've played? (Except Fantasie impromptu, everyone has troubles with that in the beginning).
Although, the third movement o/F-major Ballade or the the second or third scherzo

[quantum]

I'd say go with some Scriabin Poemes, Preludes or more of the Etudes first before you tackle those big ones.  Try something in his middle or late compositional style.  The 5th Sonata and Vers la Flamme are a far stretch from the moonlight or even his Etude Op 2/1 for that matter.

If I were to select from your list I'd say the Chopin or Liszt HR's. 


Actually I prefer juice to sprite
