4-hand version of Pictures at an Exhibition

Do you have such a thing?  I know there is an arrangement for piano and orchestra too, but that is probably copyrighted.  Ah, Mussorgsky, no business sense.  Brahms would never have had such a lapse.

There is one by Naoumoff, but it is copyrighted.

It is a bloody awful music anyway, so surely 2 hands is enough?

Yep, that's the p + orch one I was talking about.

I wanted to play it with a friend, 1 p-4 h.

Maybe I'll muster the patience and make one.  Unlikely, but if I do, I shall dedicate it to you, Thal.

Thanks!   ;D

Sure.  But rather than when, you should say if.
