TAUSIG Transcriptions!
on: March 26, 2007, 03:49:48 PM
Ok...

Faust Symphony?

Dante Symphony? 

Any Symphonic Poems he got around to?

Anything else you'd care to share?

Thanks a bunch,

Dan

Under Schubert there's the Schubert-Tausig-Horowitz: March Militaire.

I have already posted a fair bit of Tausig, but i might as well do the lot at once.

Mostly pdf's, but a couply of Zips and DJVU's.

I am very bad at filing things in the right place. I might have missed some.

Heh. That file is enormous - therefore I have to investigate it  ;D I'm sure my Tausig collection will be expanded by this. Thanks  :)

I am a big fan of Tausig. I consider some of his transcriptions superior to those of Liszt and Thalberg.

Regretfully, much of his output is beyond my own pianistic ability, especially the Halka, which i spent a month on but did not get very far.

The 5 Stauss Waltz transcriptions are absolute gems and anybody thinking of entering the Romantic Transcription genre should give them a whirl. His take on Weber's Invitation to the Dance is a fantastic work and his alterations to the Chopin E Minor Concerto is more than sufficient to irritate the "purists".

I wonder sometimes what heights Tausig would have risen to if he had not died so young. As a pianist, many contempory pianists thought him superior to Liszt.

Might i be so bold as to suggest that his Hungarian Rhapsody is as good as anything Liszt wrote?
