Anyone have a good 25 minute program? It can be difficult, just not EVERYTHING overwhelmingly so.

There are 20 of them -- Boris Berman's recording comes to 22 minutes.

I haven't played them, but they are a very diverse bunch, both in mood and difficulty. Some do not seem very difficult at all. Some seem very difficult. They are not variations; just a bunch of short pieces, most of them under 1:30, and some even under 1 minute.

They are all "good", some are just "gooder" than others. What are your criteria?

Oh I like that piece pianojerome, but I forgot to mention that I can't play that since my teacher's other student already is frown

Any other preferably impressive hungarian rhapsodies that you particularly like?

The 8th in F-Sharp minor is a nice one, too.

Have you heard Cziffra's recording, "10 Hungarian Rhapsodies"?
