In my opinion yes, but im sure other people has had other experiences with it. Although since i have played both, i would say i farely know what im talking about

[bradleykavin]

would you put the rach 3 at 10? if so, what else at 10?

[stevie]

if the hardest pieces are at 10, ie - opus clavicembalisticum, those are probably around 1 and 2, respectively.

yes,i think that classification is acurate.More on the 5,i guess.And the Rach2 is more of a 8(rach3 a 9/10-for is length and musical complexity,that makes the technical approach of it harder).
