Having attended music school and played the piano almost my entire life, I have very strong feelings about this magical instrument. Let's share all the piano pieces we like here. Doesn't have to be classical music, even - just any solo piano music that you enjoy.

On the classical spectrum, I think impressionism is my favorite period. I am especially fond of Ravel's Pavane pour une infante défunte, as I used to play it at a time that was quite difficult for me.



And of course, you can't go wrong with Debussy.




But it's not like I only listen to stuff like this. most of my music library is soundtracks, actually, and I've been rediscovering the Rebuild of Evangelion soundtrack in recent days, so here's two stand out piano tracks (although the score is filled with them, really, theses are just the two I like most.

First there's the incredibly energetic duet Quatre Mains.



And the very melancholy L'Apotre de la Lune (I have this thing in that most of the music I like is some shade of sad).
