Suggestion for piano pieces to learn?
I’m looking for some new classical pieces to play, preferably something that will stretch me a little but not too out of my technical ability! Oh and please do not suggest any Baroque pieces, anything Classical and beyond would be great!
Here are some of the last pieces I’ve learned to give you a rough gauge:
Mozart sonatas (K310, K309, K457), Beethoven sonatas (Pathetique, Moonlight), Schubert impromptus and a sonata movement, Bach P+Fs and a movement from his French suite, Scarlatti sonatas, Chopin preludes and nocturnes (quite a few, the last of which being Op 48 N 1), some Mendelssohn Lied Ohne Worte, Tchaikovsky’s June and a few other stuff from Schumann, Debussy, a consolation from Liszt.
Thanks in advance 
@ Jamal: Thanks! Unfortunately I’ve already learned Claire de Lune and Reverie from Debussy. And you’re right, they’re beautiful pieces.
Wow, thanks everyone for all the suggestions! I’ll definitely look into the pieces all of you mentioned
You’re missing a few key repertoire points…
Why not try a Haydn sonata? You’ve not listed any in your list and they are vital for a piano student…
A Brahms intermezzo or Rhapsody might do you good… Hmmm… How about Intermezzo in C sharp minor?
Or the second rhapsody?
Besides Debussy, you’re lacking pieces from the contemporary period… I made the same mistake and that period is the hardest by a landslide to learn now.
Hmmmm… Prokofiev’s sarcasms would be great for you to learn… They’re lots of fun and gorgeous… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-Swxz9QctU
Or perhaps Ginastera’s danzas argentinas… Great pieces… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlR0xCIF7sQ&feature=PlayList&p=BB1B7E17F2AF7920&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=32
Good luck…
