Transcendental!!!!!
for me
easy - hard
1-3-11-6-9-8-7-10-2-5-4-12      this is just my own rank
i learn feux follets now and i think it is easier than i have heard from many of peoples
but wait untill i could play up to speed
for me the trill in 12th is much more difficult and mazeppa would coz me alot about stamina so loud so fast piece!

I have foolishly been trying to learn one of these on and off, the 11th (and I'm glad I see it listed the 3rd easiest by you).

I wouldn't be to sure about the first one (Prelude) myself, but I know I specifically lack the technical abilities for it, no chance of playing it at speed OR making it sound nice, despite it's length.

Considering I poor I am at playing the piano, I would probably say the 11th is one of the easiest too, in saying that it's still bloomin hard, after all this time I'm still struggling on the first page's long Arp. Chords, and havn't even advanced past the first page. But concentration when learning it is next to none these days for me, so you'll probably hack it quicker then me.

The only other one I would attempt is Wild Jagd, Berezovskies performance is un-bloomin-believable, and makes me wanna try it myself! But more recently I been back on the easy stuff, and floating more on the Anime music as well, since there is loads of sweet piano melodies of anime tunes out there

Generally it seems most of us agree to say the 3 hardest are 4-5 and 12 .   1-3-6 seem to be considered the easier ones.
