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.

technically or musicality talking? it depends on your tastes too.... i played in the conservatory after that Bach Partita 1, P&F 9 book 1, mozart piano concerto 21, chopin revolutionay etude, beethoven op. 27 no.2, liszt murmullos del bosque or un sospiro, but i think a piano concerto would be good for you now.
bye!

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

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.
