I would reccomend pieces that are as different as possible to those listed.on my list. For further study for said studenta Handel suiteA Poulenc Nocturnea Hummel Piano SonataA set of Kabevsky preludesa shostakovich prelude and fuguea Sauer etude
Ok.. thanks but could you recommend similar to those listed?
What would you recomend to a student to play next if he plays pieces like Rachmaninoff - Moment Musical op. 16 N. 4, Rachmaninoff - prelude in c# minor, Chopin - Revolutionary etude, Chopin - Nocturne op. 48 n 1, Chopin - Polonaise op 26 n 2 ?Thank you !
Introduce him to the WTC if you haven't already. There's plenty of good stuff in there that isn't just dry baroque stuff.Also, late Beethoven (although really just Beethoven in general).Liszt is also great, and some of the etudes might be approachable. The Khatchaturian Toccata is fun.
Are you a teacher? it sounds like you're out of your depth if you're not familiar with this level of repertoire, and cannot think of similar level pieces to work with. Almost any Liszt pieces will be suitable, at this stage it comes down to the students preferences, but their repertoire seems very scattered, why not learn the set of Chopin Etudes, or the full Opus 16 of Rachmaninoff?
Per his other posts, he is a conservatory student looking for repertoire (including a concerto) for himself. Very confusing that a conservatory student would not be guided by his teacher.
Ah ok, i misread the first post, it sounded like he was a teacher now it seems they were just referring to themselves in 3rd person What would you recomend to a student to play next if he plays pieces like Rachmaninoff But yes you are also right. Maybe its just me, but to get to this sort of level, you must have played many many other pieces and established yourself as a pianist with taste and preference, to seem to have so little intuition towards what new piece to choose next is confusing to me..EDIT. definitely think they're a teacher based on a previous postQuote from: chopinlover01 on 11 October 2016, 18:27:58Introduce him to the WTC if you haven't already.

Depends. If you actually play that repertoire Then get into some beethoven sonatas quickly. If you play them like mundane oatmeal without any real crispness or articulation Then go back to those pieces and dive in deeper.
Most of the Hungarian Rhapsodies are probably approachable. Also, some of the easier etudes (Un Sospiro, etc) are fairly doable. I'm doing Un Sospiro right now, and your student sounds about my level, so it sounds like a decent pairing/
You have mastered them. Better than the Juilliard piano performance professor we have at my school. She plays several beethoven sonatas beautifully but has never admitted to even having mastered them. Kudos and applause to you.
