Hi everyone, which would you say is harder, Rachmaninoff's Love's Sorrow or Love's Joy?

Thanks!

Most would say Liebesfreud is technically harder. It is an old warhorse piece with a lot of technical difficulties. It isn't musically easy too.
Beethoven Op 2/2
Chopin Op 20, maybe op 47/38
Debussy Etude 7
Grieg Op 16
Want to do:
Chopin Concerti 1 and 2
Beethoven Waldstein
Ravel Miroirs
