Jazz pieces I could use for my diploma
on: October 06, 2023, 08:07:18 AM
I'm choosing some repertoire for my LTCL exam, my list so far is:
Lizst - Un Sospiro
Ravel - Ondine
Beethoven - Op.31 No.3

I play in a big band so I've gotten to take quite a liking to jazz standards, singers, and performers like Chet Baker, Dean Martin, Oscar Peterson, etc...
I've been thinking that I would like to give jazz for the piano a go since LTCL is probably the last chance I'll get to try it since I doubt FTCL would have jazz repertoire in it at all. The pieces on the list are interesting but I was wondering if any of you had any suggestions?

How about one of the Kapustin Concert Etudes, op. 40?
