Why hungarian rhapsodies?

I prefer the Finnish Rhapsodies
Bach - Partita No.2
Scriabin - Etude 8/12
Debussy - L'isle Joyeuse
Liszt - Un Sospiro

Goal:
Prokofiev - Toccata

  hungarian rhapsody no 12 is in a league of its own......
 
   imo its far superior to no 2 which seems to be the most common favourite..

   the number 12 offers so much,that gypsy tone in csharp minor is just awesome..

  a great piece to learn....
