I have had many comments that I have learned a lot from, first off this list is accurate for his famous pieces but apparently there was something before his trancedental etude that was harder called the douze grandes etudes and he made them easier for people in the transcendental etudes. Also I apologize I ranked no 1 wrong it is not transcendental etude 4 it is Paganini etude 4. Also I apologize if you disagree with my list, but some people may have had easier or harder experiences with the pieces and your experience with them isn’t the only one so please stop disliking it and commenting that kind of stuff
Nicolas Nobis you don’t need to be so apologetic it’s a good lis(z)t lol
QuickScope1597 thanks I’m just not used to having a lot of criticism and dislikes on my videos I guess
@@nicolasnobis9141 It was the transcendental that were older and harder. The douze grandes are the ones performed in this video.
Nicolas Nobis
You need to practice 80 hours per day
@@nicolasnobis9141 Well if you would be proffesional (or at least advanced) pianist, you would know that half of the pieces included in this video don´t dare to be even in top 50 hardest pieces of all time. Not because how hard it "looks" or "sounds", but how hard is the technique to play. Mazeppa is literally easy patterns, Preludio has easy technique, same Hungarian Rhapsody no.6/no.2 (these two are really easy if you try to learn them, it´s the same thing over and over but harder, only thing is the speed and stamina, and most of prodigies have it so it´s easy for them), then Wilde Jagd, these "double" notes are really easy, not talking about the 3 notes trill. That´s like tremolo on violin, Etude no.7 is 2 octaves in 2 hands plus some chords, many mistakes in the midi makes it look hard. Dynamics isn´t all.
And plus, paganini no.6 1838 version is way more harder than the easier one you included in the vid, maybe harder than the paganini no.4.
And you should´ve gave credit to all vids not just half of them :)
Please don´t take this as hate, it´s just opinion. I know nobody is able to do top 10 (that´s why you shouldn´t have done this vid), because someone can play something better than others. We could talk about how hard is to learn it and how hard is it to perform, then we could do some more accurate list, but it doesn´t matter, just play for the beauty :)
Have a great day
Always good job, Nicolas.:) You have good video editing ability.:)
Kassia thank you so much kassia!
Interesting Kassia was here when she had like 21.000 subscribers.

@@nicolasnobis9141 Amadeus!!!!
god these comments really drain the life out of comment section so unoriginal so boring so lame so common so repetitive.. so shite
Feux follet is difficult to master and perform because aside from the extreme technical challenge of the rapid double notes and huge jumps, you can't just rely on volume, showy chords, excessive pedal, or rubato to hide your deficiences.
Liszt was well aware of this, it's no accident that he makes the pianist play the difficult sections leggiero, pianissimo, staccato, and allegretto. Can't just be letting "good" pianists pass themselves off as "transcendental."
This list is accurate for his famous pieces. Though technically all of the Transcendental etudes shouldn’t be there. There’s an earlier version of those nicknamed the Douze Grandes etudes which were too hard for everyone so Liszt simplified them into what we now know as the Transcendental versions. But understandably they aren’t very well known so there are few performances or good midis. Same story for La Campanella.
rip in pepperonies oh I didn’t know that thank you! I’ll make sure to check them out!
rip in pepperonies I’ll pin your comment so ppl know
Technically Kassias Etude 6 shouldnt be there aswell.
But the s 140 version should be on top 2
El Contrabandista is missing aswell as La grande fantaisie de bravoure sur la chlochette
HatePopmusic sorry I forgot some you can make your own list and I will watch

@@waidi3242 lol
I mean to be fair the list isn’t very accurate
@@charlesxii5804 its all opinion-based. People have different views on what is harder based on what they have heard, or from past experiences
Its Dark That’s true but there are for sure more difficult pieces by liszt

Where is reminiscences de don juan and sonata in B minor
no one:
liszt: i bought the whole piano imma use the whole damn piano
3:56 my god do those notes sound amazing
Transcedental Etude No. 4 is Mazeppa, not the one you put in number 1.
Oops I didn’t know what to call the number one and the video I got it from said it was tracendental 4, so I jut listed it as that
Nicolas Nobis it is called paganini grand etude no4
liszt etudes d'execution transcendante d'apres paganini no. 4
I think Mazzepa is easier
It’s the early version of the 4th Paganini etude. We understand what was meant.
I just remembered that Liszt made this out of scratch........
Hallo zer gut
Now way!!!
Well not all pieces, some are transcriptions from Paganini
@@DanielVodenitcharov right, but he still made them .,. Just with inspiration, still amazing
@@derekpintozzi2498IKR ITS SO CRAZY
Tbh Liszts reminiscences are much more difficult. Huguenots got some mad leaps and Don Juan is just in general mad especially with the champagne Aria that just kills at the end. Then you have stuff like his sonata, contrabandista and stuff.
Wilde Jagde is way harder than Hungarian Rhapsody no.2
You're right
YES!
nice try but you obviously have just heard of the piece wilde jagde from this video, and decided to pass yourself off as a professional musician. It is very obvious that the hungarian rhapsody is harder, from those who have learnt it.

Great video! It’s truly fascinating because I am not yet very good at playing the piano and pretty much all of Liszt’s pieces sounds the same level of impossible to me lol
Wait I don’t understand. What is the difference between transcendental etude no 4 and mazzeppa? I’m trying tot find number 1
Ant 55 no 4 is Mazzeppa I just marked them wrong I am trying to find out number 1s actual name I think it is from his Paganini etude?

These pieces might be true for techincal difficulty, but when it comes to musicality and structural integrity (plus superb technique, of course), I'd say the Reminisces on Don Juan and his Sonata are far, far superior than his etudes and bravura pieces.
Rousseau❤️
I can agree with the first one I have tried all the other pieces but first one is literally unplayable from beginning itself...
Jericho-KrishTG we can obviously tell liszt had 3 hands
Khatia Buniatishvili, lang lang, Valentina lisitsa, are better than rousseau, hi is Just popular, playing not so well (yes my english is bad)

@@emredincer2620 we have to wait... To know about him.. And next thing is there were people who disgraced Valentina,lang lang,khatia I know there will be a comment like this... Anyways I like Rousseau.
I dont like liszt cause he was laughing and changing Chopin pieces😡
That’s a good top 10 list.... those are some intense pieces.

What’s the last piece???
Liszt... Oh nooo. That name alone!!!. Never could play his music. Ever... Too bloody hard.
You forgot Reminiscences de Don Juan. That coda is impossible.
i tried it, it nearly burnt my arm off.
My piano teacher's daughter can play Wilde Jagd. A month ago, after I finished a piano lesson, she played Wilde Jagd for me. It was awesome and the piece stuck in my head.
We are both quite good at playing the piano. I'm starting to do the Chopin Etudes while she is midway through the Liszt Etudes. She is a few years of progress ahead of me even though she started learning the piano only half a year earlier than I did. Though, my progress is accelerating due to my hand size rapidly increasing from an 8th to nearly a 10th in a year. We also both love the piano, even though I am more a math person than a music person, which she is.
We grew up together, being classmates for 8 years, (we are 13 now) but unfortunately she just went abroad to study a few days ago. In the future, I may only see her a few times every year.
Que piensan de las transcripciones de las 9 sinfonias de Beethoven hechas por Liszt, deberian estar aca, cierto?

yay! in my opinion hr2 is suposed to be no 9 and why category gaming?
Music farm life agree
Hr2 isn't that difficult. Only an 8 on Henle aswell. Hr6 shouldn't be here either. The only difficult part is the cramps in the last section. Still should be a 9/9 difficulty though

@@jayaseelansundarrajan9780 wow this some old ass comment xd
Fun Fact: Liszt and Paganini are friends Paganini composed La campanella by using his Violin
Liszt uses his piece to play it on piano
Same with Etude no. 6. It was based on Paganini's Caprice no. 24.
4:05 to like 4:18, that just looks unreal
Look at that lol she is kust hand shaking it real
What’s the Liszt piece called la valse 🎉😅😊
Where is spanish rhapsody or his sonata in b??
Hey dude I like your list just remember to say my opinion only at the beginning of these vids because you see how people act in the comments just don't worry bout them
Brenden Wilson thanks and ya I probably should have put a disclaimer I just forgot lol I didn’t think it would get any views lol
I think Feux follets is a bit technically harder than etude no 4 you put in the first rank..... Also, what about El Contrabandista?
Feux follets is nothing compared to paginini etude no 4
You should add paganini etude 6 (1838) to second place or same as paganini etude 4
Yes i want that true
All the 1838 etudes can easily defeat all of these etudes in difficulty.
So good😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
Imagine kassia missed the last chord in la campella 😂
Btw Nikolai Petrov is the only pianist to record himself playing all of the transcendental etudes. Including no 4
traum piano has all of them i believe, i may be wrong though
Nessuno riuscirà mai ad eseguire così velocemente lo studio da Paganini numero 4 nella versione del 1838!
How much notes do Liszt need to remember when he is on the stage LMAO
having recently learned etude no4b, it honestly isn’t that bad once you figure out how to do the arpeggios well. it took me 1 and a half months to learn, but will take MONTHS to master. i’m talking like 4 or 5 months. i also think that feux follets blows all of these out of the water and should be number 1.
edit: i have messed with feux follets for the first time, and i do have to say it is much easier to read than etude no 4b but my point still stands. the speed and accuracy of the intervals in feux follets, along with the notation marks still makes it the most difficult out of these pieces.
Could you post a video to your channel? Being able to play any of those pieces is absolutely insane!
Sonata in B?
Ohhhhhhh my 😮
The piece mentioned to be ranked no.1 is actually the 1838 version of the Paganini etude no.4 (Etudes d'execuation transcendante d'apres Paganini)
ua-cam.com/video/eQW43EJYxbI/v-deo.html
Etudes no.4 starts from 4'40",
can't believe that this etude can be performed by a human being (the legendary Petrov!!) in such a perfect way!
Mazeppa is Transcendental etude No 4 d'execution S.139, but okay call it "Etude No 4"
Reminiscences de Don Juan should be number 1.
It's not that hard, Liszt has a lot harder pieces but it may be number 2 among this list.
The arpeggios are cleaner than my room
it's not even humanly possible to play trans etude 4 at that speed. no one on planet earth has every played that fast
maybe liszt himself.. it's a shame that we dont have recordings of some famous composers
@@ilovemilfs69420 you are correct. nobody could play it at the intended tempo except him. it was so hard for everyone that he had to make another easier version.
Liszt is prob an alien exiled to earth
@@Vein01 lizst didn’t give this arrangement a tempo marking, we have no idea how fast lizst played it but probably not this fast
@@emperialmidnight4479it is written by Paganini on a violin so it should be technically at the same tempo if Liszt wanted it to be the same. I’m pretty sure this is doable for Liszt
No reminisces de Norma, benediction de dieu or Mephisto walzer no 1 ?

The Video it's Wrong. That's the 4th Etude of the Etudes Aprés Paganini
Read the pinned comment.
Is the last one realy playable?
Nope.
No
Remi giroud Yes it is definitely playable, the speed that midi plays it at is ENTIRELY unrealistic and Liszt would’ve have wrote something that he could’ve played. Chances are the tempo was most likely put in by an editor, not Liszt. Around 60 bpm is more reasonable.
It’s the Douze grandes. Liszt performed it, so... I suppose yes.
@Charles XII it’s a chain
Where is Spanish Rhapsody 🤔 I think it is more difficult than HR2
No, where is romancero espagnol, it’s like Spanish rhapsody times 5
No 9 is not supposed to be on this liszt. I’ve played it and the hardest part isn’t as difficult as almost all of la Campanella
Logan McDonald I haven’t played any of these pieces, and I just put them in what looked the hardest if I could do it again I would change a few. Also even if one was harder for you it could have been easier for someone else
@Nicolas Nobis I’ve been playing piano for 4 years, so I’m not exactly a great pianist, so I can say with confidence that almost anyone who plays it will find it easier than anything else on the list.
Logan McDonald ok I do agree with you I would change it with I could(:
@Nicolas Nobis It’s better than most, seeing as it features Rondo Fantastique, unlike every other one

Me when tried to play S.140 no.4b:
*hand broken*
This list is so inaccurate LOL
Maybe you should have added La Campanella Original Version (Paganini Etude 3) instead of the Revised La Campanella?
Some of these pieces might be ultimately difficult and destructive of your hands and wrists. The fact that they contain flowing octaves in both hands and scales in triple/quadruple tempo does not qualify them as music. Their purpose may have been mainly to provide Liszt with "love" opportunities after the end of concerts. But as music, they ultimately fail. And if they contribute to destroying your physical equipment, they are even worse.

The secret to bring able to play this is to play hard songs first so you can play this sooner rather than later in life.
