Do any piano transcriptions of Mahler exist?

[Rach3]

I was just thinking about how some of the movements might sound on piano, like the scherzo from the 7th (virtuosic!). Obviously there are no great transcriptions (Liszt was already dead...) but it would be quite fun if there was at least something.

Does any transcription exist?

Pianist John Bell Young transcribed the Adagietto from Mahler's 5th. There is an audio sample on his website, https://www.johnbellyoung.com/core.html, where you can also order the sheet music.

I have a short transcription of a piece called Erinnerung by Borodin if you would like it.

John Young ... years and years ago, he had master classes on mp3.com when it was actually mp3.com.  Always liked listening to those.

If you leave your Email address im sure that the Mahler fairy will leave you a transcription of the First symphony and the Adagietto from the 5th symphony 

Cheers!

The Mahler fairy? Is that the one that flies around on Cziffra's bumblebee?

Incidentally, I just noticed this exact thread already was written three years ago (page 52 in the Repertoire archives):
