I finally got the 12 transcendental etudes!
on: May 19, 2024, 09:55:22 PM
I finally got the printed version of the 12 transcendental etudes!
I was gonna touch up Wilde Jagd and start Chase-niege and Erioca
Maybe restart Mazeppa and Feux Follets
Any recommendations?

I would try the easier, slower ones too - Ricordanza, Paysage, and Harmonies du soir. Probably not as difficult as the really insane fast pieces but they're so beautiful.

Just do whatever you want, if you're really good enough to play Feux Follets.
last 3 schubert sonatas and piano trios are something else

I'd like to add #1 to the list(z)t as well. It'd probably be a nice warm-up for the rest.
Couldn't agree more with transitional, though. If you really can do Mazeppa and Feux Follets, do whichever ones you want.
