I cant stop playing this piece!!

Any1 ever find a piece which is so beautiful and enjoyabe to play u sit down to practice it a couple of times but end up playing for an hour+?
I've just found this beauty - its the Ravel Sonatine.
The second "movement" is so enchanting, technically relatively easy but requires a delicate and precise touch.

That happened to me with Jeux d'eau, I got through the first 3 pages, then it all sort of fell apart, never again will I touch that piece, well in a while that is...

That happens to me all the time, lately with Chopin's g minor ballade - just can't stop working on it. Next thing I know it's been 3 hours! Same thing happened with Beethoven's Appassionata, especially the last movement. Really addicting stuff.
It's fun, isn't it?

uh sorry i haven't got the music on PC.

The appasionata is too difficult to get addicted to lol i'd have to play it soo slowly when starting out.

Do you have a recording of the sonatine?
Haven't heard it yet
And i luv Ravel's music! Especially Jeux d'Eau
I think that's one of the good things about music.. We're able to enjoy so much of the music we can't even stop
I often have that with Scriabin's music.. When I'm practicing I just don't wanna stop, it's too much fun
Lol..
