most dreaded piano piece (is that a piece in this case) was Big Ben...you know, the melody of the english clock...it was my first piano lesson, and i was something like 8 years old, but i will remember it all my life..i was so disappointed to play this piece. not beautiful at all (even if it can be nice to hear big ben in London)

'Good King Wenceslas' -- a Christmas carol about a king who sees some poor people and decides to go trapsing after them in the snow to bring them Xmas dinner. It had about 14 verses that my family could never quite remember so I was always waiting around for 30 seconds between verses while they debated which bit came next. The plodding simplistic melody somehow seemed to get longer and slower every year (and of course less of a challenge too... I haven't touched a piano since moving to China and I could still play this thing blindfolded, with my toes). Eventually I started protesting by speeding up, little by little, until it was too fast to sing along.

Most dreaded piano piece hands down was the old school song by Carpenters "On top of the world" - Mother loved singing it by herself & in front of guests. Thank god for whoever invented the install-at-home Karaoke machine.
