erhm, no they are quite a few pieces 'harder' than those 2.  do a search for the gazillion 'what is the hardest piece in the world' threads that have been started.  (please don't start another one though  :(!!!!!)
Never look at the trombones. You'll only encourage them.

When you enter the world of virtuosity at piano, La Campanella is a fairly easy piece compared to the rest of the great repertoire. Tarentella is a great piece too, but by far not the hardest.

Totentanz is also pretty difficult.
But yes, as abovementioned, in the world of piano virtuosity (occurs after learning Appassionata Sonata by Beethoven), La Campanella is really, quite an easy piece relatively.
Bach - Partita No.2
Scriabin - Etude 8/12
Debussy - L'isle Joyeuse
Liszt - Un Sospiro

Goal:
Prokofiev - Toccata

I wouldn't call Campanella easy. Relatively or not.
