Hi, I'm preparing to take the ATCL exam of the Trinity, and I wonder which pieces the others choose! They have a pretty long list with a lot of excellent choices, it's hard to choose, there are a lot that I love, like chopin's and Liszt's and Schman's,I like them all but unfortunately they are all from the same period of music. So, what did you choose :0 ? Tell me!

I took the DipABRSM, which is different from the ATCL. However, the repertoire to choose from remains largely similar.

Bach - Toccata in E minor
Beethoven - Pathetique Sonata (please do not ask. I was young and naive once)
Bartok - 6 Dances in Bulgarian Rhythm

Even with the breaks in between, I still sort of went under the time limit. Luckily..no one noticed, I hope.
Bach - Partita No.2
Scriabin - Etude 8/12
Debussy - L'isle Joyeuse
Liszt - Un Sospiro

Goal:
Prokofiev - Toccata

I'm doing DipABRSM in less than a week! :o I'm not sure, but I think that DipABRSM is a slightly shorter program than ACTL... but anyway:

Debussy - Ballade
Schubert - Sonata D. 664 (complete)
Liszt - Sonetto 123 del Petrarca
Bartok - Nos. 5 and 6 from Dances in Bulgarian Rhythm
It all happens on Discworld, where greed and ignorance influence human behavior... and perfectly ordinary people occasionally act like raving idiots.

A world, in short, totally unlike our own.
