Regarding Estonias, you're right, they have a decent reputation today around here as well. They suffer from the fact that decades ago many people had to play Estonias that weren't up to the task at that time. Takes a long time to cure that.

Aha, excellent! A well-rounded musician! Beethoven, Chopin, and Debussy are big favorites of mine too, but like you said, it's hard work. Sometimes I need sabbaticals, so I take them. Right now I'm working on a lot of Ravel and some Scriabin, but I always come back to those three you named at some point.
