Seeking Repertoire Suggestions (older pianist coming back)
on: May 25, 2020, 10:04:52 PM
Any suggestions for new pieces for someone who's been away from classical repertoire for many years?  I just re-memorized Brahms Rhapsody, Op. 79 2 (g min,) which I had played in college almost 50 years ago.  Right now i have Bach c min. Prelude and Fugue from WTC I, and several Joplin rags in addition to the Brahms.  Small hands, too.

Hi
There is just so much, this is difficult since we don’t know what you don’t like
But here are a few you may not be familiar with or haven’t thought of recently
Don’t know if you are familiar with imslp.org ?  You can download almost all scores in the public domain

Many thanks!  The Scriabin and the Ravel sound good -- the Pavane is quite beautiful.
