For me, the music that probably best describes my personality might be Couperin's Tic Toc Choc!
Here is my performance of the delightful piece. I would say that I am a pretty energetic, and exuberant person!

Dominic Cheli You are definitely a super energetic and FUN person! In fact, I would have picked this piece for you, if you hadn't already posted it, LOL!
-
Dominic Cheli SO wonderful and applicable to you, Dominic! Thank you! Bravo!
-
Dominic Cheli It's cheerfulness does suite you perfectly! I would love to be able to play this one day though it is a far cry from my personality
-
-
I’d say Montagues and Capuletti from Romeo and Juliette suite by Prokofiev and also the Waltz from Masquerade
-
Aleksandra Bogomaz I adore that Valse!
-
Gail Starr me too, both pieces have certain dose of extravagance and decadence inside, I find that quite resonating with me.
-
Aleksandra Bogomaz I don't know about you, but I always seem to have music playing "in my head" when I am doing chores or walking around. These are 2 of the pieces that have been on my "interior playlist" since I was a kid.

-
Hmmm. It would probably be Beethoven's Hammerklavier: challenging to get to know, intense, complicated, with an undercurrent of (usually misunderstood) humour....
-
It is a great question! It requires some thought - indeed! Hmmmmm.
-
I would say Edvard Grieg's "Morning": at the beginning, 1 minute 20 seconds - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x463zoWpiVI.
-
I am comfortable with Chopin Nocturne op.27 #1 &2 , Brahms intermezzi ballade and Romanze .
your Couperin is wonderful Dominic.
-
For songs, first place for me is "A Little Priest" from Sweeney Todd. For non-vocal music, Brahms' 2nd Piano Concerto is my favorite.

Robert Lind "Try the actor, It's compacter?"
-
Robert Lind that is a hilarious combination!
-
Gail Starr Locksmith?
No. Someone to box with.
-
Robert Lind I miss Sondheim! There's never been anyone quite like him. I love the classical twists that Anthony de Mare has brought to his music. Do you know Liaisons?
-
Gail Starr I hadn't heard of de Mare until today. Now I'm hooked. Thanks for the tip.
-
Robert Lind I would love to learn some of his transcriptions someday. Got too many other things on my plate at the moment, though! So glad you like his work

Innig by Robert Schumann. Introspective and expressive at the same time.

Selections from Rachmaninoff Etudes-Tableaux - specifically Op. 39#8, or Op. 33#4. But others as well. And then find myself getting sucked into another one - all the while thinking, "...seriously, you want to work that hard again?!" Apparently.
I can't stay away from Rachmaninoff, so there must be some strong affinity. And yes - beautiful Couperin!
-
The song dest describes my personality is the Fréderic Chopin Concert n. 1, played by the best pianist ever : Arthur Rubinstein
-
Hi everybody. The piece of music that best describes my personality may be " any classical /romantic concerto or sonata" and some modern ones too...
-
Symphony No. 1 by Brahms.
-
Alexander Weymann you pick the best pieces, Alex!
