The Prodigy Who Saw Into the Future – Lili Boulanger’s Piano Music

A teenage girl with forward-looking ideas, Lili Boulanger had enough determination to successfully navigate the competitive, patriarchal, and conservative music scene of Paris. Despite a constant fight against illness, she achieved great mastery as a composer, and left behind a significant catalog of works characterized by intense emotional depth, in a sophisticated, post-Romantic, Impressionist style. Now, all her scores for solo piano are available to Piano Street’s members. Read more

Balanced programme.  Beethoven sonata will count for half of the playing time.  Also, the last 2 works are of slow tempi.  Therefore, not sure if you want to chance the playing sequence.  (No need to play in the order of baroque, classical, romantic and post-19th century.)  Good luck!

To me... I would probably play it in this order:

Beethoven, Chopin, Bach, then end with the Beautiful Rachmaninoff to end it.

To me the Beethoven opens up the program with gusto and bravura while the Rachmaninoff ends it with grace and dignity, and leaves a lasting impression (provided it's played stunningly).
