One of Schubert's or Brahm's Impomptus was set in the left hand by Liszt. Famous piece. Little known arrangement. I forget the piece though. minor-Major-minor. b minor I think? And I'm thinking Brahms.... Hmm...

Found it. Eb Major... b minor... Is it really that big of a difference?

Impromptu, opus 90 no 2, in Eb (starts Eb Major, ends eb minor)
Schubert

No Brahms at all. Liszt was the one who did the arrangement though. Imagine the workout the left hand would get out with this piece.

The Chopgod (and 16 others, if I remember correctly), would be, however.

For us musicians, the music of Beethoven is the pillar of fire and cloud of mist which guided the Israelites through the desert. (Roughly quoted, Franz Liszt.)

I know that but does it have to be exclusively left hand? It works the left hand so thought it would be acceptable.
