I think this is quite appropriate to stay in "Stuff We Play". Plus there's another topic in this forum about who plays instruments. Those aren't games. 
Anyway, I've been playing violin since the 3rd grade. I took piano lessons for 2 years but stopped after that. I'm currently in college, and I'm in the orchestra (yup, still playing violin!) We went to New York City last year and played at Carnegie Hall.
Of course I love classical music! When I did play piano, my teacher started me out on Clementi sonatinas. I've played some Bach on the piano, as well, among other intermediate compositions by other composers.

Two kids from my local highschool went to play at Carnegie Hall recently for piano. Everyone here was quite excited about it.I think this is quite appropriate to stay in "Stuff We Play". Plus there's another topic in this forum about who plays instruments. Those aren't games.

Yes, it's so beautiful! And I love walking around NYC -- so many stores!!WOW! Carnegie Hall?!? I play the violin too! Sadly, our teacher uses the SUZUKI method. i hate it o__O
Anyway, I only started learning violin in public school -- didn't have a private teacher until college -- so I "grew up" on the "All For Strings" book/method, which was the book I later used when I taught beginning and intermediate private lessons.
But to keep this thread on topic... I signed up for piano lessons here at the university a year ago, and I was so depressed that I had regressed so much! I took piano lessons from 8th to 10th grade and got up to a decent level, but then last year when I found my old piano books, I couldn't play the Clementi sonatinas (well) anymore.
People on the piano are so wonderful. There are so many wonderful piano students at my school, some of them are like celebrities... especially when they win the annual concerto competition.

To me, playing instruments is a game! A game more pleasant than any videogame!Can a guide move this? This is for GAMES we play, not songs.

I love piano!
My favorite song, is Fur Elise. I personally think that Beethoven is the best piano composer (like, he is the only one xDD)

I dare to argue.I love piano!

Chopin was a famous piano composer; most of his compositions are for piano, and they're absolutely brilliant! I especially love his "Fantasie Impromptu" -- you should listen if you can!
Although, I won't argue that Beethoven is an amazing composer in general -- his symphonies are awesome. Our orchestra played the 5th on our Florida tour this past January.
