Need help identifying a piece. Chopin??
on: December 31, 2010, 11:53:17 PM
Hello, I'm posting here trying to appeal to more experienced artists since I'm not having any luck looking elsewhere. I need to know the name of this piece but I only have a short clip to share with you. Thank you in advance for any help you might be able to offer.

It is Liszt Transcendental Study No.8, known as "Wilde Jagd".

I would like Chopin a lot more if he wrote music like Wilde Jagd.
If this work is so threatening, it is not because it's simply strange, but competent, rigorously argued and carrying conviction.
