The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence.

Stay about as far away from this piece as you possibly can.

Look at measure two; if you feel the same way about it, then stay twice as far away from it... repeat for each consecutive measure.

Those are probably some of the most manageable measures in the entire piece, maybe try some easier Liszt?  An easier etude maybe...
