Hi! I like the song 'What If' too! My favourite piece for my instrument (piano) at the moment probably is Chopin Nocturne in D flat, Op 27 N 2 because that is the piece that I'm learning but I also love Rachmaninov Piano Concerto N 2 and 'The Lark Ascending' ( even though I don't play violin!). I love loads of other stuff aswell though!!

I love La Campenella by Liszt. It is the most beautiful piece but so extremely hard to play. Even most concert pianists can't perform the whole piece through.

ive heard a few people saying that, that piece is good but ive never heard it!! can anyone tell me where i can get the score or listen to it?!!

thanks

Nat

generally, i love way too many songs to distinguish (classical, baroque, romantic, contemporary, jazz, pop, rock)

but for some reason, Chopin's "Nocturne in C Sharp Minor" is stuck in my head. i guess you could say that is a favorite.

Oohh. Thats a difficult one as there is so much good flute music out there! I think that if I had to choose it would be Suite Antique by John Rutter Fantastic flute music for anyone whose doing gr6 and above! And I love telemann for flute as well!!

On the keyboard I love The Arrival of the Queen of Sheeba cant stop playing it!

Hi Nat ,

There is a site you can listen to it and see the music.

It's quite good for listening to pieces you see people posting on here when you don't know what they are.

music-scores.com

Just click on 'Liszt' on this page and 'piano' on the rh side of the page

I have a few faves.

The one I can't stop listening to at the mo is Tchaikovsky - Waltz of the flowers (Nutcracker suite).

I love the last part when all the woodwind, percussion and brass etc join in. I turn it up really loud !

Apart from that, I absolutley love Vivaldi - Winter, Massenet - Meditation from Thais, Debussy - Clair de Lune.

To name just a few !

My favourite songs are:

Chopin:
Nocturne Op. 9 No.1
Nocturne Op. 9 No.1
Etude Op.10 No.3
Fantaisie-Impromptu Op. 66
Nocturne in C-sharp Minor
Etude Op.10 No.12

Natalie, i downloaded La campanella from the internet, but i couldn't find it again now, it is not written on the score either, maybe you could try to check for free scores from the internet if you are desperate for it!

But it is really hard to play. My hands wasn't big enough to stretch for more than octaves!!!!!!!

thanks Fiona!!

ive listenened to it and looked at the score and i dont think ill ever be able to play that piece!!lol
but i like it though!!

Nat

I dont play this piece, but i on 1 of my mozart cds there is a concerto for flute and harp and orchestra in C, i love it!!! esp the flute part, oo its great!!!!

still love mozarts clarinet concerto though- im actually quite a big mozart fan!!

Nat

I like all of the Tchaikovsky ballet music! Its fab!

hi

may favouriye composer is chopin. my god, i can sit and listen to him all day, and playing his music is very theraputic.

for anybody that likes chopin, watch the pianist. great film, all the music is chopin. the films depressing though.

at the moment i'm doing jesus christ superstar, and i've become addicted to Gethsamane. anybody else like that song? it's beautiful, especially the reprise at the end..

jaime

Kate Winslet - What If
Moonlight Sonata ...
Suite Antique (for flute) - John Rutter...
