Exactly how much harder are Liszt's "Grand Etudes" compared to their easier revision? And why is it that the Transcendental Etudes are far more popular?
I've read that the Transcendental Mazeppa is actually more difficult than the Grand one. Is this true?
What is the hardest of the "Grandes Etudes" set?
And could someone please post a famous, precise recording of the "Grandes Etudes"? Can't really pinpoint one...I mean did Cziffra, Arrau, Richter or something record them...please let me know. Thanks!
