If you don't know Claire de Lune (Debussy), or Moonlight Sonata (Beethoven), then you've never lived. I understand that they're classic piano pieces, and sometimes those can be a little boring or "old fashioned", but they are my favorite piano pieces of all time. I can play Moonlight Sonata (in fact I'm doing it for Federation), but I have yet to learn the masterpiece of Claire de Lune.
They are gorgeous piano pieces and I am begging you to go listen to them if you don't already know what they are. Every time I hear them I need to stop and listen, and I gain a new respect for life and love after the last chords are played. PLEASE go listen to them right now.
While we're on the subject of music, I pose a question for you to answer. What is your favorite song or artists, and why? Music can tell a lot about a person, and I'm just curious about what I will learn about the style of music you listen to.
NOTES: Federation is a competition in which you play two piano pieces for three judges and they judge you one yourself, not against others. One is a classical piece (Moonlight Sonata), and the other is your choice of a list that they have (Jazz Suite Nmb. 2).

I want to come hear you play. I love those songs too. But I am a pretty shallow music listener! Give me country western, and can I say Kenny Rogers!
I love those as well! Another one of my favorite composers is Vivaldi. (The Four Seasons) I'm so glad I can hear you play the piano any time.
