Hi,
I am preparing my last exam which is supposed to be in a year: a piano recital.

These are the pieces I plan to play:

Bach Prelude and fugue in c minor
Beethoven Sonata op 79 G Major
Chopin op 10 no 3, 12
Tchaikovsky Romance in f minor
Debussy Pagodes
Ravel Vallee des Cloches
Armengol Danza Cubana 8 Días Felices

I like them, but I am not sure if the pieces are of good level of difficulty.

What do you think?

It depends. What level of exam is it, and what are some other pieces you have played in the past?

Good level of difficulty for what? For you? For a recital?

It is the last year of Bachelor's degree, where I get the degree with both a thesis and a recital.

I have played Bach's Inventions and 4 Sinfonías, Beethoven's Sonata op 2 no 1, Mozart's Sonata a minor, Chopin's Nocturne op 48 no 1, Debussy's Children's Corner, Ravel's Pavane pour une Infante Defunte. And that's all I can remember.

It is dependent on what the school is looking for and, if they think it is sufficient for their requirements. Have you taken a look at past recital programs of other students at your school?

As a recital program, it is fine.

It's a fine program, if you are worried about the requirements of your school, I'm afraid you need to ask them!
