Hmmm... Thought this was only for 19th and 20th century pieces. A lot of the pieces mentioned above obviously predate that. That's why I barred my original mention of one Domenico Scarlatti.



The guy's work is ****ing nuts. Probably the most underrated pianist, and by far writes some of the most technically challenging/sounding pieces I've ever heard.

Another amazing one that fits in the time period. Rachmaninov:

Al Pacino = God
