absolutely. le tombeau de couperin is practically impossible to play.Gary Askwith said:Kirsty has good taste, Ravels Piano concert for left hand is amazing..in fact Its difficult to list any of Ravels piano works because i want to include them all
Le Tombeau de Couperin
Gaspard de la Nuit
and Jeux d’eau are 3 of the lesser known pieces
Debussy's Sarabande from pour le piano and Hommage à Rameau from Images are composistions from another spiral Galaxy...they are incredibly evocative/intense/complex...they could justify humanities existance!![]()
That is available on an album called John Williams and Friends which was released in something like 1981. It's a funky classical rock version of something by Bach I think.Maz said:Theme to The South Bank Show.
No idea who composed it.
Based on Caprice no. 24 by Paganini - which is also the subject of Rachmaninov's famous Rhapsody on a Theme by Paganini. Strictly speaking a violin piece, though Rach's arrangement is piano and orchestra.Maz said:Theme to The South Bank Show.

Oh yes now I remember - I was completely wrong before. It wasn't John williams and Friends it was an album by Andrew Lloyd Webber - was it called Variations?Pete said:Based on Caprice no. 24 by Paganini - which is also the subject of Rachmaninov's famous Rhapsody on a Theme by Paganini.
Favourite piano piece? Blimey, where do I start? The piano having been 'my' instrument all my life (though I'm a cr@p player - hammering the keys purely for amusement) ... I love listening to Rach-3 (Rachmaninov's concerto no. 3) though it's way WAY beyond my ability. But my mood changes all the time, so on another day it'll be something completely different...
