New Piano Market Statistics: Inside the Quiet Transformation of Piano Playing

For those of us who spend our lives on the bench — whether teaching, practicing for a recital, or simply playing for the love of it – the piano has always been a singular concept: wood, felt, strings, and soul.

A Prelude & Fugue?
Chopin Etude? I can't suggest which one though because I don't know your playing.

Those Mozart sonatas you played are very difficult to pull off, maybe try your hand at a Beethoven sonata next? The ones opus 14 are nice.

Well, I'm studying Brahms rhapsody no. 1 op 79, and I have to say, that's a real piano piece, it's like the mountains, now you're playing agitato and f and now pp and very carefully. You have to cross your hands often and be careful with the two scales.

You should try and learn it. Best wishes,

Michael

P.D: Excuse me for my English  :-[
Now learning/playing:
-Brahms rhapsody op.79 no.1
-Bach WTC1, BWV 848
-Debussy Tarantelle Styrienne
-Rachmaninoff etudes-tableaux

I've played 79/1 myself and it's a great piece and a lot of fun to play and learn and given the pieces you've recently played you could pull it off. If not you should also look at 79/2 which is a little easier and also a good piece.
