Hello,
I myself am not a professional and probably am somewhere around your level so my judgement may not be the best. What level do think you are at right now? Since you haven’t played a lot for 3 years, I am assuming that you kind of forgot some things and it might be good to try an easy piece first just to warm you up and refresh your memory. I would probably play a couple easy Bach pieces like some of the easier inventions and then move up. I would try the first movement of Beethoven’s op 2 no 1 sonata and if it’s to easy, try the fourth movement, and if it’s too hard, do the op 49 no 1 sonata first movement. It’s hard for me to suggest repertoire for you becases I don’t know your current level. A Chopin waltz like the b minor one would be nice and if it’s too easy there’s the minute waltz or the C sharp minor which is the second one following the minute waltz in the opus. Maybe Clair de lune by Debussy? Some of the easier Bach Prelude and fugues from WTC 1 and 2.

I also saw you asked about Rachmaninoff in another thread and that you played the C sharp minor one... there’s the moments musical no 3 which is fairly easy, and maybe you could try one of his preludes if you think you are ready for them because IMO the C sharp minor one is one of the easiest. Maybe the d major, B major, or g sharp minor one, but after you refresh your memory and play a couple other pieces.

Again, these pieces might be way too easy or way too hard for you but I just don’t know your current level and I am just recommending pieces around the pieces you played last like the each prelude in C sharp minor, Schubert impromptu op 90 no 2, and the Mozart sonata no 6. It would be very helpful if you could tell me an estimate of where your current level is so I could give you a more accurate response. Plus, I’m not very experienced myself and probably barely above your level.

Hope this helps,
Alex
