The Hammerklavier Sonata...
or you could just take everyone's reasonable suggestion and learn the Pathetique. It's fun to play, as there are a lot of very different styles blended together. The 2nd movement is also one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever. |

I was definitely going to suggest Prokofiev No.2 when I opened this thread. Check it out, even if you might not play it for a bit [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
Everyone is recommending Beethoven's Pathetique. That;s pretty solid. I would also look into the Hammerklavier which has also been mentioned, and Waldstein, which hasn't. The first movement is really cool. I don't play piano, so i couldn't say how hard it is. |

Hungarian Rhapsody #2 [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
But seriously, how about Chopin's Revolutionary Etude if you can do it? |

Hungarian Rhapsody #2 [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] omg so good. #6 is also incredible. Listen to Argerich's performace on her debut recital.

[/ QUOTE ] Another amazing piece, but I think some of his nocturnes are more difficult. |

The hardest thing about playing piano is having the patience and discipline to practice. You need a lot of practice. It's [censored] HARD. |
