So anyone who ever wondered how I can type 100+ wpm, it's mostly because I have played piano for quite a few years. So I love classical music, especially classical and jazz piano. As evidenced by these excerpts from that MP3 directory: Scott Joplin HCW1 - Maple Leaf Rag.mp3 Overture to William Tell - Rossini.mp3 Beethoven - Fur Elise.mp3 Beethoven - Moonlight Sonata (Artur Rubinstein).mp3 (Rubinstein plays the 3rd movement so precisely, and it's a *GREAT* piece. If I had to demo a piano piece to someone, i would choose the 3rd movement from Moonlight, it is so impressive. FIND THIS AND PLAY IT!!!) Beethoven - Piano Sonata 14 Op.27No.2 in C#m - 3rd Mov (Moonlight - Presto agitato) - Vladimir Horowitz.mp3 (3rd movement played by Horowitz, I sound much more like him than Rubinstein <g>) Beethoven Op. 13 Pathetique.mp3 (Pathetique has some great parts as well. I love playing the ending to the 1st movement) brahm_-_Piano_Quartet_n3_24.mp3 (For 4 hands...) chopin_ballade_in_f_minor.mp3 CHOPIN_MAZURKA_IN_Ab_M.mp3 Classical - Chopin-Nocturne,Op.62,No.1 - Horowitz- The Last Recording- Chopin, Haydn, Liszt, Wagner.mp3 Mozart - Piano Sonata No 11.mp3 Dubravka Tomsic piano - Piano Sonata No8 in C minor op 13 Pathetique graveallegro di molto.mp3 Dubravka Tomsic piano - Piano Sonata No8 in C minor op 13 Pathetique Introduzione adagio cantabile.mp3 Dubravka Tomsic piano - Piano Sonata No8 in C minor op 13 Pathetique rondo allegro.mp3 (These are all really fun pieces) Glenn Gould - 09 - Mozart - Sonata No. 17 in D Major- Allegretto.mp3 Vivaldi - Concerto In C Major, RV 447.mp3 John Williams & Boston Pops Orchestra - Classical Gas.mp3 John Williams - Battle Hymn Of The Republic.mp3 Mozart - Piano Sonata No. 15 in C Major.mp3 mozart_sonata_in_f_major_.mp3 Palladio Allegretto.mp3 (This is the entire song that they use in the DeBeers commercials - interesting history, but it's a great piece) pianist, the (soundtrack) - 06 - chopin - waltz #3 in a minor, op. 34.mp3 George Gershwin - Rhapsody in Blue - (Boston Pops).mp3 (Absolutely fantastic. I actually got to see the MN Orchestra play this last year. I can play it, but it's crap without the orchestra behind you. And the sheet music I have doesn't have some of the jazzy additions) Rodgers - The Carousel Waltz.mp3.OK (Of all the music Richard Rodgers wrote, this was his favorite) Schumann_-_Piano_Concerto_-_III.mp3 Strauss_-_The_Blue_Danube.mp3 (Of course) Tchaikovsky - 1812 Overture (John Williams conducts The Boston Pops Orchestra).mp3 (Of course) Wagner_-_Tannhauser.mp3 (And a little opera to round things out. I would still like to get a few from Carmen, but I haven't yet). On Mon, 2004-03-01 at 10:15, Tim Sinks wrote: > Only the blues. Koko Taylor, John Lee Hooker, Pinetop Perkins, B.
