Curious about Liszt
on: January 04, 2017, 11:11:09 PM
I'm wondering what would be a good "first" Liszt piece to work on. My goals are to play the Mephisto Waltz No. 1, Hungarian Rhapsodies 2 and 6, La Campanella, the Dante Sonata ...

Which of these should I tackle first? Is there another one that would be better to start off with that I didn't list here?

Thanks in advance for any advice you guys have.
Practicing:
Bach Chromatic Fantasie and Fugue
Beethoven Sonata Op. 10 No. 1
Shostakovich Preludes Op. 34
Scriabin Etude Op. 2 No. 1

Consolation no. 3 is beautiful, and not very difficult.
