Do that one and you are probably guaranteed an A. Unless you are capable of harder than this

Good technique for a 14-year old! Too bad she doesn't have a better piano.

Can't recommend anything without knowing your background. pianist

Well I have been playing on and off for around 4 years. Im pretty good at watching people play and playing that. Im looking for a more new song. I can play old songs like Fur Elise but I have more fun learning the newer stuff like from bands of today or piano songs today.

Can you read music? Sounds like I wouldn't be of much help to you, though, since I'm not interested in band music or modern piano songs (if you're referring to what I think you are), and obviously haven't thought about difficulty levels of particular arrangements.

And :lol: @ all the people telling him to learn a virtuosic piece to exam performance quality in a week. He needs something much simpler than what has been posted.

I always was a fan of Liszt- Here's a recording of his hungarian rhapsody #2 (everyone knows this one).

Seems like you're interested in video game music, and you say you have a good knack for picking up new music by ear. I would recommend, then, that you look up a slow song that you like a lot (you'll be motivated to practice it because you'll WANT to learn it). Go for something short, and keep it slow. You've got a better chance of learning it in a week than trying to tackle a fast work, especially with no sheet music. Good luck.

Yes, but what are the chances of him learning that in a week? University trained pianists need months to learn that sort of work to performance level.

I dunno if you're good at playing just by listening, but this is a pretty nice set of songs; I specially like Green Bird. (from Cowboy Bebop)

Would you be able to learn Liszt's Liebestraum? Or at least a bit of the beginning.. how long does your piece have to be?DeeJayInphinity

No I dont think i can do that.

Haha. Alot of these fast classical songs. I would just like to do something nice and relaxingArsenal325

Try June Barcarolle by Tchaikovsky.
