i am just starting with a new coach after several years of "dormancy" in my piano study...  we will start with  Scarlatti K.380 and Chopin Op. 25/No.2

on my own, i regularly read/work on Bach P/F (both books), Muczynski, Dello Joio, Ginastera, Brahms Klavierwerke, Schumann Kreisleriana, and many other pieces.  i have a terrible habit of playing alot, but not refining much.  i am public school choral teacher, so i only play for my own enjoyment.  i.e., not much pressure, but also not impressive at all to those "real pianists" LOL

I've recently finished all the pieces in Kinderszenen Op.15 by Schumann, and is currently working on Haydn's sonata Hoboken XVI nr. 49.
Sadly, school takes a lot of time and energy...  :-\
