2009 07 Waltz (Schubert)
Waltz by Franz Schubert
This is kind of a bold piano question. (lol)? Well.. If you feel like you even want to answer this id really appreciate it. Okay I know I should be asking my piano teacher but why not just try here. I am playing things like level 4 (the book) waltzes by schubert, and beginning preludes by chopin. Im not really sure what song to go to next to make myself better. It seems like, the music that i am gravitating to is either much harder or much easier. If you could, could you list song songs.. that go up in difficulty from the ones i mentioned. So like say i started at marry had a little lamb... what would be the next, then next, and x, y, z... Id really appreciate this because im not sure where i have to go from here. Ps: I want to learn Winter wind etude, Revolutionary etude, and also hungarian rhapsodies later in my " piano studies lol idk " but yah... thanks for all the helpno reason to get snippy! if you REALLY think I am stupid or whatever for asking this question, you shouldnt be answer it then its called yahoo answers not yahoo smart ass answers.. simple as that. (not you liszt haha) : )

I am preparing for my grade 8 exam in the U.K however, I would not dare attempt some of the Liszt rhapsodies yet! They require mature virtuosity and musicality.I can give you a piece of advice though: personally, if it takes me longer than up to 2 months to at least learn the 'notes' for a piece I am concentrating on, then I am attempting a composition which is out of my depth.
Nobody is going to take the time here to put into a progressive list, the last 400 years of solo keyboard literature. However - it has already been done. You can get a book like the HINSON graded guide to piano literature. However, without the appropriate instruction, this is meaningless. I am a competition judge, and every year I hear kids who wallow, slam, or crash their way thru things that are WAAAAAAYYY over their heads - they are far away form having the right technique to play all the notes, and far away from having the musicianship to make any actual MUSIC out of the mess. Your own teacher should be providing you with pieces that contribute to YOUR progress - we do not know you, and you *telling* us what you are playing is meaningless. This morning, I played 2 movements of the Prokofiev Flute Sonata in my studio - can you tell from me saying that, if I am an artist or a slob?
You're not being stupid! You have, however, asked a question that is almost impossible to answer. In addition to talking with your piano teacher, you might get a couple of books one level ahead of where you are not playing, and have some fun poking through them!
mamianka has a point. There is a difference between someone who's MASTERED a piece, and someone who can "play" it. Without having heard you play, it's difficult to say. Easier preludes by Chopin? I'm guessing that's Em, A, and Bm. A list? That's what I love about piano. There is no list. What you are going to learn is not set. I can make recommendations.. but...First of all, you should ask your teacher. He/she knows best where you are and what you can play.You might want to look at some of the easier Chopin waltzes and mazurkas. PS: If you are doing levels, then you are NO WHERE NEAR the Chopin pieces. I am playing some of the more difficult Chopin etudes, however, Winter Wind is above me. Hungarian Rhapsodies, I dare not attempt, except for perhaps the easiest. Revolutionary, I'm playing right now. Musically, I can take Chopin nocturnes, but not the ballades.
If you are finding the easier Chopin Preludes about right for your ability level, then here are a few suggestions that are of a similar or slightly higher level that you might find useful, appealing, or hopefully both :)The Schumann "Scenes from Childhood" should be in your range, as should Debussy's "Children's Corner Suite." (Don't let the names fool you; there are some quite challenging ones especially in the Debussy.)You should definitely be adding some Bach Inventions if you haven't done so already (Nos. 1,4,8,13 to start, Nos. 10,14, 15,5 if you're beyond those in the first group.)The Mozart Fantasy in D Minor or the Haydn Sonata in D Major could be longer works that might suit you as well. Don't worry about specific opus numbers on those two - almost every music store in the world will have multiple copies.In general, you sound like you'd be at the level of the Bastien Piano Literature Vol. 3. You might want to check it out sometime and see if there's anything in there that you could use, or move on to the next level. A piano teacher or at least a knowledgeable music store clerk should be able to make some suggestions if you're looking for a collection instead of individual works. Good luck!

Franz Schubert: Waltzes
Franz Schubert: Waltz in B Minor by Arthur

Franz Schubert - Kupelwieser Waltz (Manuscript 1826)
Very charming waltz which Franz Schubert is believed to have played on Leopold Kupelwieser\'s wedding on September 13, 1826. According to the notes, the music was never written down by the composer, but passed on from generation to generation by ear. Finally in 1943, Mautner Markhof (born Kupelwieser) asked the composer Richard Strauss, a friend of the family, to transcribe it. The composer rose galantly to the task, adding a few refinements of his own, as Schubert connoiseurs are quick to point out. The painting in this video was done by Leopold Kupelwieser and Schubert can be seen standing on the back of the coach (slightly bending over) during one of the frequent trips to the countryside with his beloved friends.
Tips for playing a waltz... ? I am learning on piano Waltz in a minor by Franz Schubertand i am having kinda of a hard time putting it all together are there any exercises that will help me with that or tips for me.... i have all the notes its just the fingers are so spead out... so yah,, any help would be great
If you like this piece you can download Franz Schubert: Waltzes sheet music online in digital format.
Every day before playing piano, put both hands on a table and stretch all the fingers as far as they can go for about a minute.
Odd, school appropriate composer deaths? This is what I have so far:Robert Schumann-mercury poisoningJean-Baptiste Lully-infection from smashing his foot with a conductor’s staff (no batons yet). Died from gangreneCharles-Valentin Alkan - died when a bookcase fell on himAlban Berg - complications from an insect bitePeter Tchaikovsky - cholera from unboiled waterHenry Purcell - died after being locked out by his wifeMaurice Ravel died from experimental brain surgery following whack on the head in taxiAmédée-Ernest Chausson - riding his bicycle into a wallAnton Webern - shot after curfew in 1945 by an over-zealous drunk American GI while outside for a post-dinner cigarAlexander Skryabin - infection from a boil on the lip caused from shaving (septicemia)Alessandro Stradella - died in a duel after an angry husband caught him in bed with his wifeGiuseppe Verdi: See Lully.John Barnes Chance: electrocuted in his back yard doing some yard work.Franz Schubert: died of syphilis (STD)Mieczyslaw Karlowicz (a Polish composer of the early 20th cent) died in a skiing accident in the Tatra mountainsKarl Komzak (a Viennese writer of waltzes) died rushing to catch a train at CologneDid I miss anything really crazy?Note: This is not a last-minute "OH MY GOD MY PROJECT IS DUE TOMORROW PLZ HLP I HVE BD SPPLNG!!!!" kind of thing. I actually have good time management skills.And I'm a very good speller.
Bed?ich Smetana - died in a Prague Insane Asylum of paralysis due to possible syphillis Enrique Granados - drowned trying to save his wife in a German U-boat torpedo
What grade level? Syphilis-induced insanity, its root cause being an STD, might not be appropriate for younger kids.
To clarify on Anton Webern, it was an inexperienced army Chef who was nervous and who should never have been on a sting operation to try to catch a war profiteer. A few others:Jean-Marie Leclair was stabbed to death, possibly by his estranged wife.Ernest Chausson died in a bicycle accident, he lost control on a steep hill and fell off his bike.Enrique Granados while in atlantic transit his boat was hit by a German U-Boat.Gesualdo Murdered his wife and her lover upon finding them in the act of cheating on him.
I might suggest looking into MacDowell's death, something about complications from syphilis, severe criticism from the pres of Columbia U., and an accident in a hansom cab led to a crippling mental breakdown, reducing him to a child-like state his last 2 years.
Here are some more:JS Bach - Died from infections following unsuccessful surgery designed to cure his blindness.Arthur Butterworth - Died in action in the Battle of the Somme in 1916.Hugo Wolf - Died completely insane from the affects of syphilis.František Kotswara - Died of erotic strangulation and the cutting-off of his testicles (at his request!). The prostitute at whose hands he accidentally died narrowly escaped a murder charge.César Franck - Died after being run over by a horse and carriage.Viktor Ulmann, Hans Krása, Pavel Haas, Ervín Schulhoff - all murdered by the Nazis in concentration camps near the end of WWII.Johann Schobert - Died after eating poisonous mushrooms he insisted were safe.
Louis Vierne suffered either a stroke or a heart attack while giving his 1750th organ recital at Notre-Dame de Paris on the evening of 2 June 1937. He had completed the main concert, which members of the audience said showed him at his full powers - "as well as he has ever played." Directly after he had finished playing he suddenly pitched forward, and fell off the bench as his foot hit the low "E" pedal of the organ. He lost consciousness as the single note echoed throughout the church. He had thus fulfilled his oft-stated lifelong dream - to die at the console of the great organ of Notre-Dame. Maurice Duruflé, another noted French organist of the time was at his side at the time of his death.

Does new mean better?
Some latest events from my teaching carrier, without going into details, inspired me to think over a question – what is better for the music teaching practice to use same time-proved materials year after year or to be in a constant search for the new sheet music stuff, new works and new composers? On the one hand, of course, there’s a huge stratum of “classical” works which are no doubt world heritage and any self-respecting musician have to know the subject, but on the other hand everything changes and develops and so does the classical music. And - let's be honest – we cannot ignore contemporary classics though we may not like it.
I think one of our main goals is to implant a good musical taste in our students, foster love for harmony and make them distinguish between art and profanation, between beautiful and vapid works. Sadly, today’s masters of harmony squander their talents on constant hunting for pioneering ideas and brand new methods, often forgetting about the chief aim of music art – to evoke elevated feelings and make the listeners think. I just hope that the time hasn’t run out for Mozarts and Beethovens yet.
