Liszt Concert Paraphrase of Rigoletto
on: November 16, 2006, 09:45:23 PM
How hard is this piece compared with Reminiscences of Don Juan and Balakirev's Islamey? (I may be completely ignorant about this, but I've always had the impression that its watered down technically compared to both of the aforementioned pieces.)

Islamey is just an etude on steroids, truly.

Don Juan rules, in my opinion (H).

Rigoletto is easier than both, definately.
