Love them all, but ELP's Toccata just blows me away every time and gets the vote.

Another RPI gem is by Il Rovescio Della Medaglia, Contaminazione.  Based on Bach's The Well Tempered Clavier.  It is excellent!

From the poll choices I'd vote for Pictures at an Exhibition but I can't vote yet so...

My first choice would be Fantasia by Cailyn Lloyd, a truly amazing adaption of Fantasia on a Theme from Thomas Tallis by Vaughan Williams.

Went for Bouree. Could've been The Barbarian though. Just like to mention The Doors' version of Adagio in Gm and Zappa's veriosn of Ravel's Bolero (the, er , B side of his single of Stairway).

Amazing how Greg Lake got to play on two of the most threatening debut album openers in prog rock. Well done!

Oh and bringing it back home a bit, performances of KE's Piano Concerto No 1.

I went with Hoedown, love the classical piece which probably influences my love of the ELP version, but either way, it's the one that I enjoy the most.
