Piano Street Magazine:
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. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

Do you mean how long is our average practice time? Or how long we think the average practice time is (or should be) ?

Well I voted for 60 - 90 mins. Because that's how long I try to practice. But sometimes I only practice 30 minutes a day (and some days it even happens that I don't have any time to practice  ::) ) and some days I practice 2 hours or even more (especially after the days when I haven't been practicing at all :) ). But I think some people practice a lot more than 60 - 90 minutes a day... but I'm just a kid :) and I'm only learning piano for a year... But I think I will have to start practicing even more :)

This really depends on my mood, my schedule and how much I'm enjoying the piece I'm playing.  I can practice for hours on a Saturday and less than a half hour the next day.   
Currently learning:
Chopin Prelude Op. 28, no. 15
Schubert Sonata in A Major, D.959: Allegretto
