Tchaikovsky's "The Seasons"  op. 37 is a collection of 12 pieces, one for each month. I guess it's about an advanced level. I especially like 'June - Barcarolle,' very lyrical, it reminds me of the ocean. You can hear clips of the 12 pieces here:

I'll be back with more (hopefully) when I finish going through my stashes of abandoned music.

     I enjoy those pieces very much. thanks for the post!

Chopin's nocturne no 20 in c sharp minor and waltz op 64 no 2 in c sharp minor are both very beautiful, but may be on the advanced side for a beginner. His waltz in a minor op. posth is VERY easy yet, in my opinion, very beautiful in its simplicity.
Beethoven Sonata Op. 13 'Pathetique'
Beethoven Sonata Op. 31 No. 2 'Tempest'
Beethoven Sonata Op. 90
Liszt Hungarian Rhapsody No. 17
Bach Italian Concerto
