Oh god, do this if you dare:
on: October 26, 2006, 10:47:37 PM
I'm really into etudes right now, and if anyone has the patience and sanity to do this, then I'd be very impressed and thankful:

Could you rate in difficulty the Rach, Liszt and Chopin etudes in one huge massive list...  lmao if there's some you dont know, then you dont need to include them all, I wanna see if someone will actually attempt to do this.
Interested in discussing:

-Prokofiev Toccata
-Scriabin Sonata 2

Apparently, no one dares.

I personally do not know enough about Liszt's or Rach's etudes to compare them to Chopin's.

You have to see the difference in them.

Most of the Chopin etudes focus on one technique and has to be played extremely fast, and all mistakes are easely heard.

The Liszt and Rachmaninov etudes are very difficult to, but you can get away with sl*w and m*sical playing, wich in the most of the Chopin etudes would sound bad.

Clearly the Chopin etudes are the best if you want to find out wich pianist has the best raw finger tech.

Learn the music you like :)

Chopin = Hardest technically

Rachmaninoff = Hardest emotionally

Liszt = Somwhere in between

That's the price you pay for being moderate in everything.  See, if I were you, my name would be Ilovepie.  But that's just me.
