Need Liszt piece to go before Transcendental Etude No. 10

on: July 13, 2010, 08:22:03 PM

I need suggestions for a piece for my recital that is no longer than 6 minutes to go before Transcendental No. 10 in a set, and definitely something that is easier than that piece. Also preferably in a closely related key to F minor. Thanks!!

"The" Liebestraum i.e. no.3, or Waldesrauchen?

Consolation no 3, in D flat major. Not as difficult as the average work of Liszt, beautiful and short

I would go for one of his later works such as Nuage Gris. I used to have a disc with it presented before the Mazeppa and that combination worked really well.

Try "La Campanella." I've played it and it's worth it.

It's often customary to play a set of pieces from the same opus (usually in consequtive order) so if you're familiar with the TE 9 or 11, they could be considered. The 9's probably among the easiest (besides 1 lol) and it's calm contrasts nicely with the frenzy of the 10th. There's certainly many other ways to go tho; 'tis just a thought.
