And what do you need help for ?

If you played that Debussy prelude and Liebestraum, you can play all those pieces you're looking at. They are all beautiful indeed, but I still do not get what kind of help do you need :)

How many pieces do you need to play ?

Then I still don't get what do you need help for :o You should just pick the one you like most to play for the festival. If you don't know which one you want to play, how will we ? :P
