Sarcasm.

What are you really asking?
Is your program suitable and in the right order?
Or how difficult are the pieces?

i'm not sure about the program but i know that most of those pieces are hard...the scherzo for example..

I wouldn't say that the pieces are easy, just if the audience will be interested in the pieces you will be playing. The pieces you are going to play do sound good, so as long as you play them well, I dont see a problem.

Try Liszt's Mephisto Waltz: a very flashy sounding piece.
