I PM'd for Waltz in C-sharp minor, Op. 64 No. 2.

I'm just back to playing the piano after a very long hiatus! I'm re-learning some of the pieces I played before and was trying to decide what to add to my repertoire. This recital answered my question! I hope 3 months will be enough for me to do this new piece some justice!


Re-learning (polishing):
Chopin - Prelude in D-flat major Op. 28 No 15

Working on:
Chopin - Waltz in C-sharp minor Op. 64 No. 2
Deubussy - Suite bergamasque - Clair de lune

I've never really played much Chopin so I'm using this as an excuse to learn something new. I think I always avoided playing Chopin because of an early bad experience. Let's just say it was a significantly humbling experience with a Mazurka. Anyways, I'm going to give the Op. 34 no. 2 in A minor a shot because it's always been a favorite. (PM sent)

That would go to the 62/1 - but 27/2 is pretty high up there.

I sent a request for Op 37 No 2 a few hours ago, sorry. (After a comedy of errors where I set my alarm for 3.30am local time, then reset my alarm for 4am and collapsed asleep with exhaustion, and was so tired that I got my opus numbers mixed up and requested Op 32 No 2 in error, and finally realised this morning.)

Polite request to organizers: 4pm Eastern Time is a good time for launching things like this in the future. At that time it is early morning in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific; afternoon in The Americas; and evening in Europe, Africa and the Middle East. That's pretty inclusive.

Ah yes, the "musical saw".. beautiful but also a very strange trio. My favorite is Op. 55/2 because it's so free-spirited and optimistic.

For me personally, the most beautiful Nocturne is the one I happen to be playing at the time........ grin

That's my standard reply to the question : "Who is your favourite (favorite) composer?"

I know I haven't been here for a while (mostly thanks to school), but this looks fun! It also provides an incentive to learn some Chopin since I have barely any in my repertoire. My absolute favorite nocturne is 55/2 without a doubt, but as that isn't available I just sent a PM requesting op. 9 no. 3 (as my first choice).
