hm list is a work in progress, first entry,
beethoven op 31 no 3


someday but not for now...

i started reading through "The Other Promise" today from my KH book volume I as my next 'concert arragement', there's so many challenges that i anticipate being with it for a while so i decided to go ahead and start memorizing now so when i clean it up over the summer it'll move along much faster.

This is no different to your "dream repertoire" thread... dream repertoire/bucket list mean the same thing.

I agree with you! except that this thread is for the repertoire you know you can learn whilst the dream repertoire thread is for pieces that you wish you have the capability to learn and in your current repertoire but is unfortunately not.

I know that I can learn everything on my dream repertoire list (one day). Positive attitude people!

The one thing I have always had my heart set on is that when I eventually get to do a performance master's, Gaspard de la nuit is going to be in my program.

I have learned Gaspard in the past and performed the whole thing in public, but it was very much an amateur performance. I hope that when I eventually reach the level where I am able to come back to it, that after having some years to mature and having to work on it from scratch under guidance of (hopefully) a conservatoire professor that I will be able to master it.

There are dozens of pieces I want to eventually master, but as Rachmaninoff said "a lifetime is not enough for music". But death will be the only thing standing in my way of playing anything, to allow your own perceptions of your personal ability to become a cage is quite sad.

My future repertoire? Well. Here's a fair amount of stuff to keep me busy for awhile. And no, this list is not my unrealistic dream; I am going to accomplish this in my lifetime, period. Unless my hand is destroyed or something.

Bach complete inventions, sinfonias, WTC
Beethoven complete sonatas
Beethoven-Liszt symphony transcriptions
Chopin complete piano works
Liszt complete etudes, along with selected hungarian rhapsodies and other works
Rachmaninoff preludes, etudes-tableaux
and perhaps Godowsky's 53 chopin studies

Two more pieces I would like to add: Chopin's Funeral march 3rd mvt from sonata in B flat minor. I have always played the piece from the sheet music but haven't learnt it yet. I know most of the notes of the first section. The spots that mostly trouble me are the trills, which I can't figure out the notes even after so many listenings. The first mvt I like more than the 3rd but I don't think I am ever going to be capable of playing it.
The second piece I definitely am going to learn after 8th grade is the Sibelius Romance in D flat major from op 24. I have not learnt it properly, mainly just playing parts I like a lot. It doesn't seem that hard to play, if you know the notes. Just the expression makes it difficult and the cadenza like passage towards the end. That part always gets me as I reach that part. Practice is all I need...

I haven't learnt both these pieces properly, so I dont consider them to be in my current repertoire atm.

Rachmaninoff's 18th variation from Rhapsody of a theme by Paganini. I jsut heard the variation and it is one of the most romantic moments on the piano I have ever heard. I thought it was only 7th grade standard until I consulted a syllabus and it was not.
Rachmaninoff's prelude in C sharp minor. I definitely need bigger forearms to play this piece but it doesn't look or seem that hard either. It is just the chords and octaves that make it hard.
I am contemplating a few final fantasy pieces, following the footsteps of my sister.

you're spot on, that Rach variation is amazing!  I think you can totally handle that prelude, it's on the 'easy' end of 'hard' if that makes sense, i.e. an early advanced piece difficulty wise, the main challenge will be keeping that long slow melody the focus down in the low register while the upper register chords just decorate, very easy to let those become the focus and lose the flow of the initial themmatic material.

i think you will find some very beutiful music int he FF PC works, i made the mistake of brushing it off as inconsequential music but although some are more successful than others I know consider them i high esteem and 'artistic' in many regards. when you decide on which ones you want to do, let me know if you want some mp3 tracks from the CD's which I also have all of them (i didnt mention in your sheet request. all the tracks are on youtube but if you want a permanent copy from my audio files of any you work on i'm happy to send along).

hehe I'm playing final fantasy 12 right now.

Anyway, I have no idea how overly ambitious I am, or overestimating difficulties of pieces I am, but here it goes:
Mozart: Piano Concerto 21 despite it's overpopularity. I think I'm going to skip the 2nd movement though...
Beethoven: Hope to play Op. 78 but don't have the room currently. Op. 7 hopefully in the near future,
Chopin: Ballade 4, Sonata 3, Barcarolle, Polonaise-Fantasie,
Liszt: Wagner and Saint-Saens transcriptions, Sonata, Mephisto Waltzes
Debussy: Poisson D'Or
Ravel: Rest of miroirs (I already learned Alborada), Tocatta, Piano Concerti, Introduction and Allegro (for 2 pianos), La Valse
Rachmaninoff: 2nd Piano Sonata, Hopefully pick Rach 2 back up again and learn the other movements, the other Rachs,
Scriabin: Sonatas 4, 5, Valse Op. 38
Prokofiev: Sonata 3, 6, 7, piano concerti
Ravel Jeux D'eau
Brahms 118/2
Liszt Concerto 1
Rachmaninoff/Kreisler Liebesleid
