Oh, so many of my personal favorites! I’ve played almost all of these. My absolute favorite piece to perform is Grieg’s “Wedding Day at Troldhaugen” from his Lyric Pieces. Satie’s Gymnopedies are also favorites, as is Debussy’s “Reverie”. One I would add to the list would be “May Night”. https://youtu.be/BaZVRctXalc
Thank you for sharing all this beautiful music. 🙂
