As in Maurice Ravel?
How do you feel about Liszt?
As in Maurice, yes; Bolero.
I'm listening to Liszt's Mephisto Waltz; it's very quiet. I keep on expecting it to break into something big. Ah! It finally has. Lots of build up, isn't it? It's a nice sort of sound. Actually, I'm getting very much into it now. Yes, I quite like it. I think I'd prefer something more flowing, though, not so jerky with all these stops and starts.
Edit: okay, I'm listening to Grande Etudes. This is what I meant by flowing. This a good piano peice. I prefer it to the Waltz, certainly.
