I suggest, that for a starter one begins with the 12 etudes op 39, and especially nr 12. (try Gibbons on ASV), Another good starting point is the Grande sonate "The four ages" (les quatre ages), Hamelin is the best here, (Hyperion, which also contains op 39,12, and the sonatine). Hamelin is superb, he lifted me completely from my chair!! A very nice collection is also the 25 preludes op 31, played by Olli Mustonen, they give a good introduction to the thought world of the composer, from the weird to the subtle. Peter Wisse
