Hey everyone, I'm looking for classical piano pieces that can really get you pumped up, like In The Hall of the Mountain King, for example. (already got that)

Can anyone recommend me some pieces that are similarly powerful? It'd be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Depends I guess on your likes and skill level, but I've always loved playing (as best I can):

Stravinsky - Chez Petrushka (Petrushka's Room, movement 2 of the piano suite based on Petrushka)

Chopin - Heroic Polonaise (Ab, Opus 53)

Mussorgsky - Pictures at an Exhibition (the original piano suite, NOT the Ravel Orchestration)

Brahms - Variations on a theme by Hadyn. This piece seems simple but there is so much beauty behind the theme.

I could only find a version with two pianos, but here it is : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XV7cWW42tTw

Symphony No.5 in C by Beethoven
