Hey everybody

I would really like to play a work from Chopin, but I don`t know which one, I need your advice!

THX! I appreciate your replies :-)

For a start there are some very easy nocturnes avaliable (you can search this site). For slightly more challenging (or rather intermediate), there`s Impromptu No. 4 Opus 66 "Fantasie Impromptu" and his Butterfly Etude.

Oh, and if you have confidence, why not give yourself a challenge with his "Revolutionary" Etude in C Minor?

try some of his preludes. Most of them are quite easy.

OP. 66 is quite a difficult piece. Dont try to attempt it if you aren`t too experienced.

If you`re sort of intermediate then try his famous waltz op. 69 no. 2

it depends what ur up for.. if your really extreamily good (about grade 10) ID suggest winter wind by chopin.. because its an amazing piece... but if not... maybe some preludes.. tell me what level u are.. or what ur playing.. and what kind of mood ude want.. and i can give u a piece that u might like ..

WInterwind isn`t a gr. 10 piece at all

u could do grande polonaise brillante 0p.22-(I think)
but its on a movie called The Pianist at the end
Its VERY beutiful

If you`re really into the Revolutionary Etude you should check out a video of someone by the name of Joe Townley playing it. It`s at http://www.JoeTownley.com and at 2 minutes & 8 seconds, it`s one of the fastest performances I`ve ever seen.

The thing with Chopin is that his scope is really wide.
He can be on either side of the scale of 1 to 10 on the difficulty level.
How long have u been playing the piano?

Revolutionary etude, like op. 66 is pretty challenging, but if that`s not enough, you can try op. 10-5 ("black keys"),which is probably chopin`s hardest.

the black keys etude is often refered to as one of, if not the easiest of all chopins etudes, true its hard, but talking about all of his etudes it is definatley one of the easiest. the hardest part would probably playing it at full speed, especially the ending descending octaves in both hands at full speed.

Come on guys if a player has the skills to play a chopin etude, then he knows a lot about piano playing and doesn´t need to ask this kind of questions.

i didnt no there was grade 10!
i thought it only went up 2 8???!!!!

yes it actually goes past grade 10.. but after that its not really in numbers anymore.. my mistake, winterwind may be harder then grade 10, right now im in grade 8 piano, and i put some extream time into that piece and got it soi just thought it wouldnt be any harder then grade 10, meh but yah

um hello !

I just need some prludes from chopin(my fauvorite composer) but I don´t know were to find them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
