What type of classical/piano music would you recommend?
I love the sound of the piano, and was just wondering what type of piano pieces or classical music would be great for listening. An idea of what I like so far is something like Fur Elise or Moonlight Sonata by Beethovan and something modern like River Flows in you by Yiruma. I really dont care for the sound of an orchestra in the background. But i wouldn’t mind like a violin in the background. Thanks!
Mozarts sonata for violin and piano in e minor
Beethovens Piano Concerto No 5 "Emperor": 2nd movement
Tartini’s, Devil’s Trill Sonata (Sonata for violin and piano in g minor. it is a violin piece but many recordings have a piano accompaniement)
Chopin:
Nocturne 8
nocturne 1
revolutionary etude (or etude 12)
nocturne in c sharp (from the movie "The Pianist")
raindrop prelude (or prelude 15)
All those listed under Chopin are Chopin’s JUST SO YOU KNOW
Bach’s Italian Concerto
Primavera by Ludovico Einaudi
Schindler’s List theme (reprise)
The Gravel Road by James Newton Howard (from "The Village" soundtrack)
Hope you enjoy them as I have
Piano Concerto #3 – Rachmaninoff
Romance in B Flat – Faure
Piano Concerto #21 – Mozart
Berceuse – Chopin
Basically anything by Chopin or Debussy would be great. And by the way, Yiruma isn’t classical.
