I decided today that I like Le Tombeau more than the others. Your thoughts?

My vote went to Gaspard de la Nuit because it offers a level of drama not heard in the other pieces. La Valse comes close, but it's not a suite.

as of today (now my mind can change) I prefer Le Tomb. No real reason why, I just find it more to my liking right now.

Miriors for me today...but only cos I'm studying it, so it's at the forefront of my mind!  Gaspard and Tombeaux are equally wonderful though. :)
