Debussy Preludes Book 1: Flaxen Hair
MacDowell's To a Wild Rose
Satie's Gymnopedie No. 1
Schumann's Scenes from Childhood, select

No Haydn piano sonatas. No Mozart piano sonatas (except the 1st movement of the C major). No Beethoven piano sonatas (except No. 20 & the 1st movement of Op. 27-2). No Bach inventions or partitas. No Handel keyboard suites. No lengthy Debussy. No Brahms (except maybe a piano intermezzo). Probably no Ravel (except a section or two from Mother Goose).

Chris follows the K.I.S.S. principle.

TRIVIA: Which of the above-listed composers did Christine quote musically (& very briefly) during a bunch of Fleetwood Mac shows in 1980?
Perhaps - but I also see her as a Cole Porter kind of gal - not to mention Mendelssohn's Lieder ohne Worte (all eight of them)

And - you wouldn't be talking about "You'll Never Make Me Cry" would you?
