Well by golly I'm still playing Bumble Boogie. I've never wanted man hands but I see no other way. It's really hard going fast and JUST barely being able to reach all the notes.
Besides that Serenade for the Doll is just about done and I get to move on to Dr Gradus ad Parnassum =)

I've made a (very rough) plan of what I want to cover before leaving uni so I'll be in a good position for postgrad auditions:
Bach- Prelude and Fugue in G minor Bk 1 nr 16
Chopin- Nouvelles Etudes, Ballade in F minor, Etudes op 10 nr 1,2,3,4
Debussy- Estampes, Etudes: 'Pour les tierces' and 'Pour les sonorités opposées'
Elliott Carter- Piano Sonata (1945-6)
Haydn- Sonata in Ab
Ligeti- *leaning towards Automne a Varsovie but may change to Fanfares*
Liszt- Transcendental Etudes 3, 12, possibly revisit Gnomenreigen
Ravel- Gaspard de la nuit
Sculthorpe- Night Pieces
the only new stuff will be the Chopin Etudes (planning on picking ones I haven't done before), and the Ligeti Etude... but I think that's a good thing as there's quite a lot there and it means I can really knuckle down with them over the next 2 years- plenty of time =]
*edit... part of the reason I posted this was for evaluation purposes... already I've noticed in the Beethoven and the Chopin Ballade I have two major works in F minor... I'd pick Ballade 4 over Appassionata any day so no hard decision for me*

I'm currently playing Hymn To Freedom by Oscar Peterson on the piano
It has more of a jazzy feel to it

Currently working on playing songs from Zelda: Twilight Princess. Songs are really cool, so's the game.

I'm currently practicing for my college concert-band audition next September, and probably will start working on jazz audition pieces before then too. My current work-list is:
* John Tyndall's Alto Sax/Piano arrangement of Joseph-Hector Fiocco's Allegro
* Alto Sax/Piano arrangement of Chopin's Nocturne Op. 9, No. 2 (love this, probably will be what I go with)
As far as actual band goes... the stuff I'm playing with the rest of my band is:
CONCERT BAND
* Opening Night on Broadway, Michael Brown
* Ricochet, Sean O'Loughlin
* Mars, Gustav Holst
* Greensleeves, arr. Alfred Reed
* The Triton, J. P. Sousa
* Video Games Live Part 2, Ralph Ford [dropped, maybe moved to Spring]
* Through the Fire and Flames, arr. Jay Bocook, Will Rapp [dropped, not likely to be moved]
JAZZ BAND
* Santa Baby, arr. John Berry
* What a Wonderful World, arr. Paul Murtha
* Hot Chocolate (from Polar Express), Glen Ballard
* Pick Up the Pieces, arr. Mark Taylor
For the spring I'm looking for more challenging stuff since we're playing pretty simple stuff, so I suggested:
* The Incredibles, arr. Jay Bocook
* I Just Can't Wait to be King, Elton John
I'm not gonna lie, part of the reason I want to do those two songs is how much Alto Sax is featured and I'm first chair in my band.
