When you die and go to heaven (?),you'll look for all the old maestros for sure. On your liszt there should List somewhere, so, knowing that, what is the one work you would want him to play for you? (any length, must have a piano somewhere in it)

P.S: might the one work you're dying to see live.
P.P.S: I'd ask for his Totentanz (danse macabre), not the Saint-Saens transcription.

I think I'd rather hear Chopin play some of his own music.

I'd rather take a lesson with Bach.

I'm not convinced Liszt made the cut.
