Chinese piece "horses"
on: March 15, 2009, 06:41:16 AM


Does anyone have a score for the piano parts or both? It would be really fun to play this. It would also be pretty easy to modify this for piano and violin if the score was found.

I have a feeling that this was partly improvised.  Don't know if it has been transcribed yet.  You could try tracking down the parts for Erhu, or Chinese Orchestra and derive an arrangement from that.  I don't speak Chinese so I couldn't tell you what the non-English name of the piece is. 

Try to track down an Erhu if you can.  Because there is no fingerboard it is capable of doing a lot more in vibrato variants - a lot of which was used to simulate the horse effects. 

Made a Liszt. Need new Handel's for Soler panel & Alkan foil. Will Faure Stein on the way to pick up Mendels' sohn. Josquin get Wolfgangs Schu with Clara. Gone Chopin, I'll be Bach
