I'd prefer the first over the second.
Although both are rather overrated.. and overplayed.
Bach - Partita No.2
Scriabin - Etude 8/12
Debussy - L'isle Joyeuse
Liszt - Un Sospiro

Goal:
Prokofiev - Toccata

the 2nd was the first i listened to. it took quite a while for me to like the 1st, because it was very Mozartian. but after a while it grew on me, and now i like them both equally. the only think possibly that i may prefer about the 2nd is how beautiful the 2nd mvmt is and its ideas are wonderful.

And I believed I was the only person in the whole Universe who hated these dreadful pieces of pure mush.

It's true -- I'm not alone!
