Advice please on piece for audition
on: May 29, 2013, 01:34:25 PM
Hi there, I am currently working towards making an application to do an MA in music therapy. I have to record three pieces - two contrasting pieces and one singing piece accompanying myself.

My first is Liszt's Consolation No.3, my singing piece will be Dream a little dream but I'm stuck on my third. I am a grade 8 pianist, but I passed the exam 20 years ago, with not much piano playing in between, so I'm rapidly trying to get up to scratch with everything, but with a new baby, it's hard to keep up. So I need something that sounds good, but not too too hard, grade 6/7 level, and something jazzy and fun - oh, and something I can learn between now and September.

Would be great to hear some suggestions.
Thanks
