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.
Currently rehearsing:

Chopin Ballades (all)
Rachmaninov prelude in Bb Op 23 No 2
Mozart A minor sonata K310
Prokofiev 2nd sonata
Bach WTCII no 6
Busoni tr Bach toccata in D minor

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.
Generally speaking, people suck.
