the Toccata is not a bad piece
Even if it's not a great work, it isn't bad

And you also clearly haven't heard bad music

Like what? George Crumb?

The pop music my busmates play is terrible. Two years ago, in 5th grade, it was better. (I mean, Justin Bieber and Katy Perry at least have a satisfying MELODY).

Nowadays, in 7th grade, the pop music is TERRIBLE. I like the melody of the song with the lyrics "Dancing like a stripper", but I HATE the lyrics.

Oh cause we're not in the "Anything but piano??"

Most non-piano music is pretty close to me.
"Anything but piano" would be wild-ass, stupid discussions about video games and sh*t.

No but because all the pieces I listed were written for piano.

No, but because all the pieces I listed were written for piano. (Yes, Peer Gynt was later transcribed by Grieg himself for piano.)
