Inter-practice pieces
on: August 30, 2023, 04:18:45 PM
I am currently completing my grade 7 (ABRSM) in roughly two weeks. I have been practicing consistently 5-10 hours a day, which some consider too much but I enjoy it so its fine; at least, that's not the debate for today.
I am of a higher standard than the above however, with pieces such as moonlight sonata 3rd mvt, ballade no1 in Gminor etc in my repertoire.

I am looking for some pieces which are fun to play, and easy, which I can sight read or uncommittedly learn between more serious pieces. I have been filling this time with exercises, but Hanon gets a bit boring the third time round in a day. maybe looking at grade 5/6? I preferably don't want something really famous but that's not a rule. \_(*-*)_/

I love the Burgmuller etudes Op. 100. Some really charming pieces in there, and not too difficult. They might be exactly up your alley.

Thanks for this! They are exactly the sort of difficulty I was aiming for!
Any other suggestions, just out of interest?
