suggestion for a really really advanced pianist
on: August 15, 2013, 07:15:45 PM
OK, so I am 8 years old and have been playing since yesterday and have mastered the complete works of Liszt.

Can anyone suggest something really advanced. Not any of your Sorabji or Finnissey as I can sight read that crap.

I'm unfamiliar with him.  Is his name fitting?  Perhaps a bit superfluous?

For your next lesson, bring in the Schumann Toccata - up to tempo.
