Chopin Ballade No. 1 G-minor

[peolainen]

Hello!

I'm thinking about trying to master the first ballade of chopin.

My current reportoire consists of the following pieces:

Rach Prelude op. 23-5, op. 3-2
Chopin Etude 1, 12, Fantasie Impromptu
Debussy Suite Bergamasque
Brahms 6 pieces op. 118 (not finished with all)

Would it be to hard at this moment?

[weissenberg2]

no, it would not be that hard.

Just go try to play it. Does it really matter if its hard or not?

3RD Ballade or the 2nd Scherzo

Kitty on the keys

I would agree with Kitty on the keys.  The 3rd ballade epitomizes the form.  A great introduction to the romantic repertoire.  On the other hand, if you've got that bee in your bonnet, go for it!
