It is so hard for me to determine which is the best piano work, because it just feels to me good music is good. I especially love Haydn, Schubert and Ravel.
Again, choosing one piece is extremely difficult, but for example, how about listening to the followings. I would really like you to listen to them from the 1st mov. to the end. To see the whole work is significant, not just extracts, you see.
