Recommendations?

on: June 06, 2024, 02:26:54 AM

Hello! I am an intermediate pianist who is looking for a new piece to learn. My current most difficult piece is Rachmaninoff C# Minor prelude, and I'm looking for something a bit calmer.

You could try the next piece in the set, the Melodie in E Major (Op. 3 No. 3).

You could do a Brahms intermezzo or chopin funeral march. But they both take a lot of musical maturity, which, if you have, then great, but if your don't have then not so great
