Hi pianists! Chopin or Liszt?

[turbinka]

Personally I prefer Chopin, especially for his Fantaisie Impromptu op 66, or his Noctures. Tell me who you think! : )

Chopin

Liszt has got to be my favorite piano composer - his insane Rhapsodies, Transcendentals and Etudes compare to nothing! It’s said that he could reach an arpeggio of 4 octaves with one hand with ease. Liszt and Chopin were even close friends!
I’d love to learn all of his 12 Transcendentals (also known as his 12 etudes) - that is one of my life goals! He originally planned to compose 24, one for each key, but because of his death, he could not continue them.
Chopin is my favorite in terms of his calm like perspectives, as seen in his nocturnes and waltzes. It’s insane how a human can create such an extraordinary assemble of music. I tear up just when listening to Tchaikovsky 's Waltz of the Flowers - it’s just hard to fathom how that was even possible to compose.
Haha I admit I am nerdy when it comes to classical, but I’m thankful for these composers. Their music really has inspired present comopsers, fulfilling this ancient period of time, when classical was all about the 17th century!
