The whole thing is a masterpiece but when he returns to the slow theme at 9: Horowitz is also a master at this piece, I haven't heard any other recording that comes close to matching the feeling that Horowitz gets.
To me, this piece really captures liszts musical talent as well as his renowned agility. I got Horowitz playing the Liszt second ballade, but he leaves out the ascending scales with the melody at the end, frickin drives me bat shit, it would be perfect if he did the ending i like.

The real recording is even better. It's from his comeback concerts and somehow, he pulls even more from the piece live. Not sure that's human. Doesn't any one like like Alkan?? Personally, I've always found Satie's Trois Gymnopedies one of the most beautiful and difficult songs to master, despite its simplicity. It evokes such emotion and demands such nuance with no bombastic flourishes.
It's definitely up there for me. Very dramatic and intense. Most versions are played faster than the following link, but I prefer the slow one to increase the drama. The text in the video is wrong.

David Nevue - Stargazing. Melancolie by Francis Poulenc http: Noturnno by Grieg has to be my favorite. It's a song that you can put a lot of emotion into and it's so much fun to play.
