Based on your first comment, you might like to check these out too:
Franz Liszt: Transcendental Etudes (preferably, in Vladimir Ovchinnikov's interpretation, he's the best pianist who record the full set): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PqWXDo9TIw
Schumann: Symphonic Etudes (Sviatoslav Richter is best for this piece): (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sy3ov9voCsU)
Brahms: Cello Sonata #1 (Rostropovich's version is my personal favorite) |
