The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

Grad recital repertoire ideas
on: December 06, 2018, 11:31:24 AM
Ok guys just want to know your opinion on how difficult/manageable the program I plan for my grad recital will be.

1. Handel's Suite No. 1 in Bb Major
2. Clementi Sonata in b minor, op. 40 no. 2
3. Liszt Transcendental etude no. 9, "Ricordanza"
4. Scriabin Fantasy in b minor
5. Schumann Concerto in a minor

There's another piece I have left out here and I'm still deciding what that piece will be but it is going to be easier than the other five.

How long do you think preparing for this program will be? I have already memorized the Schumann concerto btw but have not technically begun the other pieces. How hard is it? Which do you think I should study first? What are some of your tips to learning and mastering these pieces efficiently and substantially?

I'm studying at a music conservatory/college and have been taking formal piano lessons for almost eight years.

Thanks!
