The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence.

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....
