"The piece ranks among some of the more difficult works in solo piano repertiore" : Really… I play it and I find it easier than some Liszt's masterpieces (such as the Sonata or the Mephisto-walter). I may be wrong. Do somebody have any references to assert this sentence.

Nice catch Alex. :) Even I can klutz my way through parts of it and trust me, I am no Virtuoso Pianist. I'll change that sentence to be a bit more accurate. K. Lásztocska 17:35, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

In fact I believe that the one one who put this information had in mind Horowitz's interpretation. Actually, Horowitz speed up dramatically during the military march. And, with the octaves at the left hand, it seems almost impossible to play. But Liszt never indicates that the player have to speed up. Thereby, the march stands much more easier.
