What shall I play next?
on: February 04, 2013, 10:35:29 AM
I need something by Chopin. I can already play:
Funeral march
the raindrop prelude (+some easier preludes),
nocturne  in c sharp minor (op. posth, No. 1)

Thanks in advance.
I love Chopin SO much!

Could you recommend me some more pieces by Chopin?  :)

Only if you don't open one and the same topic in different forum sections. ;)

Waltz in A minor, Op. 34/2
Waltz in Ab major, Op. 69/1 ("L'adieu")

You could also have a look at some of his mazurkas. Some are easy, some a little more difficult.

I second the mazurkas. Get the collection and start at the beginning, they mostly get harder as you go along.

Also check out the Henle website, they have difficulty ratings for all of Chopin's pieces.

You can play only 3 pieces from Chopin so I would advise learning more of his Preludes and shorter Waltzes.

Thank you, p2u_, you are great and you talk to the point, that's quite rare. Thanks again, I'll always be a fan of yours.

Bonjour , :)


 Comme le forum l'indique : je ne sais pas quoi jouer ../:

  Sachant je je joue " Oubliette" de Harry Potter : vidéo ---->https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q02XHQr6Sj8
 Cela fait seulement un an et demis que je joue du piano ( je le précise au cas ou )

J'aimerais bien un avis qui me conseillerait sur le choix de morceau que je peut jouer , mais surtout a quel niveau , comme je suis débutante je ne me rend pas vraiment compte si le morceau est trop difficile .. Regarder la vidéos et proposer moi , s'il vous plait , des morceau qui sont a un meme niveau :) . Sachant que j'aime beaucoup le classique , ou les musique de film ;) 

Merci :)
