help! pieces 2 play
hey everybody!

i am 15, and i know i shouldn't really be in this board as im not a pro, but i need some help. Recently, i was lucky enough to be selected to represent my school and play solo (with piano accompanist) in a music competition, the only problem being what to play! i am around the elgar concerto standard, but i played that last year. i suppose i am looking for a "miniature". another "slight" problem is that i will have barely a month to learn it. i was thinking of playing Allegro Appasionato (which i first looked at yesterday, AAGH!). would this be a good piece to play? I would love it if anyone could suggest some pieces (preferably on the faster side) that would make a big impression.

Thanx everyone!

celloboy :)

Hmmm.... Let me suggest the Popper Tarentella. It has to be played *fast* (quarter note=152bpm), but it will certainly make a great impression when you play it.

You should be able to learn it pretty quickly, it's normally part of the third or fourth year's ceello repetoire. Anyone with any pretense at all to playing well must be able to play this piece with great panache. It puts the Saint-Saens to shame....
