All in one sitting? That's quite a long program... If it were me doing it and I had to incorporate all the pieces, I would play the Bach first, followed by the Beethoven. Then intermission. Second half I'd do the Debussy, Ligeti, and Ives. I would keep the Chopin as encores.

Another idea could be to omit the Beethoven Op. 54 and play the Chopin pieces in it's stead. Both of those Beethoven sonatas are wonderful, but both in the same program I think might be a bit much.


What you are is an accident of birth. What I am, I am through my own efforts. There have been a thousand princes and there will be a thousand more. There is one Beethoven.

CHopin 10/3

intermission

Debussy preludes 4,5,6

Ligeti Etude 2, bk 1

Ives concord mvm 3

Encore: Chopin op 37/1 and debussy preludes 10 and 12

Id start with beethoven, grab there attention, go to Bach. the Debussy. Kinda jumping around the Style Periods. Then Ligeti, the Chopin. But you have too much repetition. No Rach? No Russian romantics.
I would stick to a certain era in my opinion for each half actually. Start with Classical, then Romantic, or Vice versa...or Baroque then 20th century. hahaha.


For Beethoven it was Bach - For me, its Rach...the Idol
