Which Modern PIeces Should I not Play?
on: July 05, 2015, 09:05:43 PM
Hi,
I'm going to competitions that require pieces written after 1940. Which ones should I get rid of? Why(optional)?

They are all awesome works
However if you are looking for modern music then a simple "which of these dies not belong" approach leads ms to remove the Barber.  Not sure how it' is modern (give. It's age/year of composition)
