I think it is a good thing if you can surprise, but enchant your audience with a little known gem - as long as you pronounce the name of it clearly before you begin!

My choice would be this:

When a search is in progress, something will be found.

omg so pretty, i'd never head this and i consider myself a bit of a lit hound thanks for sharing!

i really like this as a possible encore work i'm thinking about working it up after i finish my two other works from the first book/volume

Shimomura - Hand In Hand (from the first of two books/volumes-Kingdom Hearts Piano Collections)

Great find.  One of my former teachers performed quite a lot of Czech music.  He passed away recently due to complications of removing a brain tumor.  
Made a Liszt. Need new Handel's for Soler panel & Alkan foil. Will Faure Stein on the way to pick up Mendels' sohn. Josquin get Wolfgangs Schu with Clara. Gone Chopin, I'll be Bach
