Suggest Liszt HR

[chapplin]

Hi all, my teacher tells me to pick any piece from the Hungarian Rhapsodies by Liszt.

I start by admitting I'm too lazy to listen through all the HR's and getting sheet music for them.

Could you tell me, which ones are in the standard repertoire plus your favourite one?
I'm not really into any of the HR's so I better have them grow on me, with good ones from the start.

If you can come up with any on the spot, that are more of a late romantic/impressionistic-ish. I would be greatful to hear which one/s. (If any)
But perhaps that ruins the whole point of her making me pick a Liszt work.

Thank you.

If you want late-romantic or impressionistic, perhaps look past the HRs to some of his later works. I've never really enjoyed listening to his HRs... They almost bore me.

If you have to pick one though: 4, 5, and 15 are nice.

No.12 has a lot of fun moments in it.

2,6,11 I think are probably more of the frequently played.

Personally, I love 9, with 4 as a close second.  9 is one of the longest, but when I discovered it I honestly listened to it on repeat for a week.

you should see which ones your favorite pianist plays well, or have your teacher recommend one. OR pick the one which seems doable(if I was married I would make a joke right here) But yeah doable pieces are according to length, musical content, and stuff along the lines of what gives you trouble, what you are good with and what you need to learn. If you have no idea how the pianist is making that sound-chances are you should think about that.

Try listening to these, for starters:
