Great list of some real overlooked gems. The Granados and Medtner entries really caught my eye. Valses Poeticos is richly romantic. Sonata Romantica should be given a new name, how about the Conterpoint Sonata? What a stunning example of this technique!

Wow , thanks for the list, i love especially Schumann's Fantasy in C major. Great list.

Other famous works overshadow these works, but I am curious about why you put Reminiscences de Don Juan and Schumann's Fantasie. I would say these works are part of a pianist's standard repertoire. Also, I would add some Busoni works. Most late-romantic piano is forgotten.
