Is this piece suitable for me?

[jmd1921]

Hello everybody, this is my first post here in pianostreet, as i've been playing for no longer than 6 months, I expect no harsh or rude comments, as i'm just a beginner for the moment...

well, the problem is that i've been going to a piano teacher, but he's on vacation at the moment, so i can't ask him this;

Among with scales, apreggios and stuff i've learned a few simple pieces for my level, including

-Für Elise
-Minuet in G, from Anna Magdalena's Notebook
-Prelude I, form Bk 1 WTC
-Prelude #7, op 28
-Moonlight Sonata, 1st Mov.
and so on

So, i've been wondering which of chopin's waltzes i could be able to play, and i've come with three options
-Posthumous Waltz in Am
-Waltz op. 69 no 2 in Bm
-op. 34 no 2 in Am

I'll look forward to your answers, if I wasn't very clear, don't doubt to ask

Perhaps it's coincidental, but you've already listed those three waltzes in order of technical difficulty. 

If you plan to choose one of them to learn, it should probably be the posthumous one in a minor.

Welcome to the forum.
I vote for Op. 69. I really like this one. Enjoyable to play....

It has to be, i just found them in my grandmother's old library, and listed them in any order...

Definetly valse in a minor. It's the easiest Chopin waltz but still a demanding piece for your level ( if you are at anna magdalena bach). Enjoy this piece and I hope you will be able to play his polonaise and ballades one day.

Hi JMD1921 , I also think the posthomus A minor is the right choice.   Also ignore that noise from the previous poster  .

And to russda_man: stop posting on the student board or im going to report you to the moderator


Cheers to JMD1921, Becky

I think it's time for a bit bigger piece, so I'll vote for 34/2. It's not very easy, but not very difficult either.
