I'm about finished with Debussy's "Girl with the Flaxen Hair", and I also enjoy Grieg's Notturno op 54 no 4. Can anyone recommend pieces along that vein that I might enjoy? (Not too hard or long!) Thank you.

You can hear me play it in the ABF quarterly recital now happening. I'm working on Debussy's Arabesque I right now. You might enjoy that too. 1918 Mason & Hamlin BB 1906 Mason & Hamlin Es

Can anyone recommend pieces along that vein that I might enjoy? (Not too hard or long!) Thank you. There are more Lyric Pieces in the same vein - Erotik, Op.43/5 and Arietta, Op.12/1 for example. You might also try a few pieces from Schumann's Kinderszenen - No.1 (Of Foreign Lands & People) and No.7 (Träumerai) and No.13 (The Poet speaks). If music be the food of love, play on!
