Can someone rank these pieces
on: June 20, 2010, 05:47:47 PM
Hi All
I'm looking at long term goals and these are pieces I'd like to tackle. I've lsted them in order of what I think are most difficult, easiest to hardest what do others think or do I go by grade level.
I'm at grade 4/5 and at moment working through Bach's Inventions and play for pure pleasure rather than performance so quite happy to play with notes, any help appreciated.
Fur Elise - Beethoven
Gymnopedie - Satie
Moonlight Sonata - Beethoven
Claire de Lune- Debussey
Gnossiennes No 1 - Satie
Liebstraume - Liszt
Rondo a la Turk - Mozart
Impromptu Op 90 no 3 - Schubert
Sonata in c K545 - Mozart
Impromptu Op 90 No 2 - Schubert
Concerto 21 K467 - Mozart
Concerto 20 K466 - Mozart
Nocturne 8 Op 27 - Chopin
Pathetique Op 13 No 8 - Beethoven
Piano Concerto 2 in C min Op 18 2 - Racmaninov

You could look these pieces up in various syllabi such as the RCM or ABRSM to get an idea of where they stand in difficulty. Of course there are personal challenges in technique, some pieces may be easier or harder to different people.
Here is a slightly reordered list:
Fur Elise - Beethoven
Gymnopedie - Satie
Claire de Lune- Debussey
Gnossiennes No 1 - Satie
Sonata in C K545 - Mozart
Rondo a la Turk - Mozart
Impromptu Op 90 No 2 - Schubert
Impromptu Op 90 no 3 - Schubert
Liebesträume No 3 - Liszt
Pathetique Op 13 - Beethoven
Nocturne 8 Op 27 No 2 - Chopin
Moonlight Sonata Op 27 No 2 - Beethoven
Concerto 20 K466 - Mozart
Concerto 21 K467 - Mozart
Piano Concerto 2 in C min Op 18 2 - Rachmaninoff

Thanks Quantum exactly what I need, I know there may be slight differences but it's good to get the opinion of people on here.

Look at this site by sheet music. You cant download if you haven't got a gold membership. But you can see the grade of difficulty.
