Schubert's Drei Klavierstücke - Which one should I learn?

on: December 18, 2025, 11:28:23 AM

Hi everyone! I need to choose to play either Schubert’s Drei Klavierstücke No. 1 (pp.1-6) or No. 2 (pp. 6-13). I'm working with a fairly tight timeline, so I'm hoping to get a sense of which is generally considered less technically demanding. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

It depends on if you think double thirds are harder than the stuff that's in no. 1. If yes, no. 2 is probably harder but it's concentrated to those middle sections.
