Liszt Transcendental Etudes, which one to play?
on: May 09, 2012, 11:03:15 AM
Hi! I like very much Liszt's pieces. One of my favorites ones are Transcendental Etudes. I want to play a Transcendental Etude.  Which of the set is the easiest?

The "easier" ones usually include; 1, 3, 6, 9

The harder ones usually include; 2, 4, 5, (Maybe) 8, 10, 12

I would suggest playing the first, it's only around a minute and it's not too difficult technically.
