The Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen variations by Liszt. I went from considering it to be a flat out annoying and empty piece to a true masterpiece and one of the most impressive works in the solo piano repertoire.

i used to not care for the scarlatti sonatas at all, they are as a whole starting to grow on my more and more.

same with cpe bach piano works, quickly becoming my favorite baroque composer, the sonatas are great!

I can only think of a few works omplete WTC, Chopin's Funeral march form sonata in b flat minor and Chopin's Barcarolle. I might also add Rachmaninoff's 3rd. When I first heard it I jsut couldn't fathom how it could compare with Rachmaninoff's 2nd PC but now probably among the pinnacle of piano concerti. Now to think of it, it is twice as good as Rach's 2nd PC.
