So I can play some Beethoven -- Now what?

[kopower]

I can play moonlight sonata mvt 1 (100% memorised) fairly well.

I can play fur Elise not bad (almost memorised)

I can play few grade 4 to 6 pieces learnt from my youth (all memorised)

I can play that catchy yan tiersen piano song.
I can play Elvis' Can't help falling in love
I can play Schumann of foreign lands and people (one of my fav pieces!)

What are the next steps for my piano development? What are some "must learn" pieces I should pick up next?

Your advice and opinions are greatly appreciated!
Thank you.

The Bach 2 part inventions.

Some of the easier Chopin Preludes.

If you want more Beethoven, Bagatelle op 119 n 1, really nice to play.
Why don't you try some Grieg? Arietta op 12 n 1, or Waltz op 12 n 2.
Granados, Dedicatoria from 6 Expresive studies,
Sonata L 238 and L 423 by D. Scarlatti really beautiful
Sweet reverie by Tchaikovsky, from op 39 n 21. Beautiful pieces in there
Gnossienne n 1 by E. Satie
Cantabile, by Chopin, gorgeous!
Album leaf by Debussy

Rach 3.
And Bach inventions for polyphonic thinking and hand independence, since the pieces you play afaik will not help you with that.

Thank you all - I will lookup all those pieces mentioned !

I second and highly recommend Gnossienne No. 1 by Erik Satie.

It is not difficult, and it is an eerily beautiful piece.

That's cruel and not to the point, apart from the inventions.If it's a joke, say it.

Kopower,
As you were so kind to welcome me, I will also give you some advise.
Indeed Bachs inventions, first the 2 part, for independence. There is no better teacher than Bach. I learned everything from him through my private teacher.
For your own choice.
Haydn or CPE Bach sonates. There are a lot, from easy to quite tough.
Be careful do not hurry, be patient, try to learn one piece very good before going on.
