Bartok 2 vs. Prokofiev 2 vs. Ginastera 1 AND CHOPIN

[fftransform]

This is regarding repertoire for competition purposes.  Here's the problem I'm facing:

Actual Difficulty:
Bartok > Ginastera > Prokofiev > Chopin 1

Perceived Difficulty by Average Listener:
Prokofiev > Ginastera > Bartok > Chopin 1

My Personal Preference:
Ginastera > Bartok > Prokofiev > Chopin 1

Average Listener's Personal Preference:
Chopin 1 > Prokofiev > Bartok > Ginastera


Obviously the Chopin's out.


Which ones matter the most?

Whoops.  Sorry guys.  I just realized that I accidentally made a thread that's not about Chopin.  My bad.


Fixed.

That's quite a silly way to choose a piece I think. You should play the piece that you love the most, and that you think you'll play the best. If it is only for competitions, the ears of a jurymember aren't equally to the ones of the public. You have certain competitions in mind?
Because Ginastera is a great concerto, but you can't play that concerto everywhere, only on the big competitions.
