This piece is very beautiful and I love the way he plays his trills, very smooth.  I can't find sheet music for it anywhere but have attempted by ear.  I was able to figure out how to play up to the point where it starts to go fast but can't figure it out after that point.

why does it hurt when i pee

Hi,

I'm particular to Liszt. I love his études d'éxécution transcendante. My favorites are: Harmonie du Soir, Mazeppa, Chaisse-Neige...

Then, there's Chopin and his Balades. Oh, sooooo beautiful! So very beautiful!

Another piece that's incredibly beautiful: Liszt's Consolation 3. And, again, a Chopin to match in "listening pleasure": the Andante Spianatto op.22. It's heaven on Earth.
