I started chipping away at the coda of ballade no. 4 measure by measure but probably won't have the piece done until summer of next year maybe lol. I would love to be able to play mephisto waltz at some point but i feel like it's way out of my league atm.

I like playing classical and contemporary pieces on piano. As far as classical pieces go, I recently played Rondo Alla Turca for a recital, and I am learning Prelude no. 1 by George Gershwin. The song is interesting because it’s considered classical but it sounds jazzy at the same time.

Sorry If I might be late to the conversation
I play the Violin and play the piano (But I quit Piano lessons 5 years ago and still take violin lessons)
I'm currently learning Haydn's Fourth Violin Concerto but I personally like these composers:
Bach
Tchaikovsky
Holst (An English Composer who wrote the Planets)
Mozart
However, I really like Tchaikovsky the most with his Violin Concerto In D (It sounds complex but I really like it)
The 1812 Overture and Mozart's Magic Flute Overture are also really good (I even preformed The Magic Flute Overture in Haydn Hall!)
