If you're able to play both do th Brahms concerto, it's easily the best of the two.

It's impossible to consider Tchaik 1 harder than Brahms 2.

My teacher and some other pianists I know say that Brahms 2 is even harder than Rach 3, depending on your own abilities.

But yeah it's definitely harder than the Tchaikovsky.
