Etude No. 9 in A-flat, "Ricordanza" is the ninth of the twelve Transcendental Etudes by Franz Liszt. It has wild but gentle cadenzas and demands delicate finger work. There are some areas with syncopation similar to ChopinâÃÂÃÂs Etude, Op.10, No. 3. This is a good introduction to Liszt's pianistic style. Ferruccio Busoni referred to this piece as "old, yellowed love letters".
