<p>Ok. Lets list all the really pretty piano pieces since I am trying to learn them and would like to become more familiar with them. </p>
<p>I’ll start with what I know</p>
<li>Fur Elise</li>
<li>Mariage d’Amour</li>
</ol>
<p>Pachelbel's Canon</p>
<p>^ thats real pretty, we play it as a warm up in band</p>
<p>chopin's winterwind</p>
<p>Another short easy one is Schubert's Waltz in B flat. I love playing it. The bass notes just ring out.</p>
<p>Claude DeBussy's "Clair De Lune" is also pretty.</p>
<p>Second "Clair de Lune"</p>
<p>Chopin's Etude, Op. 25 No. 1</p>
<p>This piece is not technically difficult after one gets the pattern down.</p>
<p>Des Abends- Schumann (from Fantasiestücke op. 12, actually all the pieces in this album are so cool)
Nocturne Op. 9, No. 2 In E-Flat - Chopin</p>
<p>Debussy's "Deux Arabesques".</p>
<p>Katharos - Which key is that etude in? (I suck at remembering opus numbers.)</p>
<p>Grieg piano concerto (i forget which key)
i think its the most amazing piece to play/hear. its on that one sony (or is it nike? hm...) commercial where the asian dude is running to get to his recital.</p>
<p>Grieg=Schumann=A-</p>
<p>Pretty...pretty...hmm...</p>
<p>Bartok 2
Anything by Busoni or Corigliano (excluding Busoni-Bach stuff)
Islamey
Chopin Revolutionary Etude
Beethoven Hammerklavier (when played with hammers only)</p>
<p>Chopin Prelude in B minor (Op. 28, No. 6).</p>
<p>Personally, I think if you want a pretty piece, pick up anything Chopin.</p>
