Originally posted by Mr. E: I may be wrong, but I don't think Canon in D was originally written for keyboard. Therefore, I don't think there technically is an original, they are all just arrangements. OK, I stand corrected. I just know that the version I bought is way over my head yet. And Joseph, "easy" is relative. And I'm relatively a beginner.

I'm with PattyP and Jerry Luke, Canon in D. My sister, who played many more years than I did, played a duet of it in a recital with our piano teacher and I've loved in ever since. I actually played an arrangement of it, to my teacher's satisfaction, that's in my "I Used to Play Piano" book. But it was even transposed to an "easier" key, so it wasn't even Canon in D anymore, it was just Canon! So I'd like to at least play it in it's original key. And yes, for some of us, it isn't easy! It was very challenging for me, even in the key of C!

GEESH! Just reading these posts reminds me I better go practice! What would it be...what would it be? Not sure. Maybe Chopin's Revolutionary Etude, Moonlight 3rd movement, Appasionata... I'll keep thinking on that one. David

"As time goes by" -- really smoothly and with a lilt! What great chords in that piece...
I'm also with Cindy-- "Rhapsody in Blue" is an amazing piece.

Chico Marx plays "Collegiate" in the movie Horse Feathers. I want to do it like him.

i would say a few pop songs, but no one cares about that up here. just boring classical pieces i've never heard of. [except Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, Op.27, 3rd Movement.]
