Hi all, just looking for some names of piano songs and their composers that you people like..all kinds of genre..

Kindly post them here. I would very much like to find them in the music library.

Thanks a million!

By the way, anybody knows who is the composer to the piece called "magic waltz"? It is a piece that 1900 played for his seasick friend,in the movie 'Legend of 1900'. I think I have mentioned it before. Thanks.

try and music by Ludovico Einaudi! its wonderful

also Farewell to Stromness by Peter Maxwell Davies is good too!

Magic Waltz was by Amedo Tommasi.

Erik Satie wrote a lot of good piano music, try looking him up.

sorry, but I found from google that it was not by him.

I wasn't looking carefully enough! I found the soundtrack CD with all the music on it by him but, looking again, for some reason it that piece wasn't on there. So maybe it was written by someone else. I'm sure that post above mine saying who it was wasn't there when I posted it (otherwise I wouldn't have bothered to look!) how did you do that? Just edit one that you'd already put there saying something else or am I going blind?!

ooh thts freaky! im trying to remember whether that post was there or not lol

That was there before your post. Perhaps there are bugs on this forum.
I didn't do anything on the post before, I saw the question and then found the answer and posted.
After seeing your post, I tried to find in google again to confirm who is the composer.

I really like the music from the film "The Piano".

Also Chopin Preludes are gorgeous.

And Bach. Anything by Bach...

Hi all, taking so long to give any comments coz I frequent here only once every 5 or 6 days..due to work commitments..

Anyway, thanks a lot for all of your suggestions. Guess I could embark on my mission to look for these music now.

Any new suggestions are still very very welcomed!

So have u all heard ;magic waltz; ??

To be honest:no.

Anything by Debussy or Ravel, especially 'Ondine'

i don't mind....but definitely not in favour of modern music...

Can't find Farewell to Stromness - but came across this piece by Peter Maxwell Davies - Strathclyde concerto : no. 4 for clarinet and orchestra

Maybe you would like to check it out?
