Grieg Sonata is somewhat difficult and I'm not sure what Schubert piece you mean, so I can't compare. I played the Grieg Sonata at a recital in college. I love it! The slow movement is gorgeous!!

I love it. It's not particulary hard, but very awkward - the left hand trills in the 4th movement are a nightmare to play in time, and theres lots of funny chord things. The 1st movement is also kind of hard.
