Liszt Venezia e Napoli
on: April 27, 2014, 11:42:06 PM
I posted a while ago about a diploma recital I'm preparing for and to cut a long story short I'm having to re-jig my programme.

I'm thinking about one of these pieces as an own choice item (well, the Gondoliera or Canzone- so many people (badly) attempt the Tarantella) and was wondering if they compare in standard to the pieces from Années de pèlerinage that were set?

Year 1: Chappelle de Guilliaume Tell, Vallée d'Obermann, Les cloches de Genève
Year 2: Sonnetto 104 del Petrarca
Year 3: Aux Cyprès de la Villa d'Este I or II, Les jeux d'eau à la Villa d'Este

(This is not another silly difficulty level thread, I'm specifically asking about general standard because I don't want to have to do another programme re-jig. I'm not expecting anyone to magically judge my own ability to learn them  ;) )

Thank you!
