    First off - you should know that there are no classical piano songs. Songs are pieces written for people to sing. Instrument works are called "works" or "pieces" or 'compositions."

    However, amongst the most famous piano pieces are:

    Traumerei - Robert Schumann

    Liebestraum - Franz Liszt

    Rondo alla Turca - Mozart (from piano sonata No.11 in A major K.331)

    Moonlight Sonata - Beethoven

    Revolutionary Etude - Chopin

    Andante from Piano Concerto No.21 "Elvira Madigan" - Mozart.

    Hungarian Rhapsody No.12 in C minor - Franz Liszt

    Sonata No. 8 in C minor "Pathetique." Beethoven

    Nocturne Op.9 No.2 - Frederyk Chopin.

    Rhapsody on a theme by Paganini - Sergei Rachmaninov.

    La fille avec cheveux de lin (The girl with the flaxen hair) - Debussy

    Trois Gymnopedies - Satie.

    Pavane pour une infante defunte - Ravel

    Clair de lune - Debussy

    Famous Piano Songs

    Most people don’t really want to ‘learn’ to play the piano or ‘practice’ the piano, they just want to ‘play’ piano. ‘Play’ sounds like fun, ‘practice’ sounds like a chore. We get this image from childhood – some kid stuck indoors ‘practicing’ scales while all the other kids are outside the window ‘playing’.

    So, first thing we need to do is to see our piano practice in a new light. See it as a way of accelerating the learning process so that SOON you’ll be able to ‘play’ piano and play it well. If you don’t practice and you just play old familiar tunes you move rather slowly. Yes, you’ll get better at playing those old familiar tunes but technically you won’t be pushing yourself to greater heights.

    Songs have words and are sung by singers.

    Compositions for the piano are called 'pieces' or 'works'.

    There are pieces for solo piano, there are works for piano and orchestra (concerto) and there are works for piano and other instruments (chamber music).

    The list is absolutely vast so I suggest getting a CD of 'Piano Favourites' or something similar which should contain works by the most popular composers for piano like

    Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Schumann, Brahms, Liszt, Mendelssohn.

    Moonlight Sonata, Fur Elise, Sonata K545, k330 by Mozart, Rondo alla Turca from K331, Schubert's Moments Musicaux in f minor. Schubert's impromptus are really good too (though not as well known to the general public).
