some suggestions needed

[shotkong64x]

I want to get into a piano class at my university, but i need to give an audition..  I need to play 2 movements of contrasting tempo.  I have no idea which ones to choose.  I would like it if they were too difficult...  If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

You could try Hammerklavier 1st movement and 3rd movement.

even better - moonlight sonata 1st mvt in 8 minutes, and the 3rd mvt in 4:30

its possible

you mean Gould style?

[julie391]

gould is slower if i recall - i do not condone speed for the sake of speed - but i do enjoy this finale as aggressive as possible

i think ill pass on the hammerklavier 

those 2 moonlight movements was what i was considering..

Sonata op81a Les Adieux is pretty not too hard but great if you play it well.
