Mahler

on: June 29, 2009, 04:02:49 AM

Are there any Mahler works for piano or any transcriptions, whether it's 2 or 4 hands, other than the Scherzo from the 3rd Symphony by Ignaz Friedman that's on IMSLP?

There are dozens of transcriptions.

Do you have any perticular Mahler work in mind?

The adagietto from the 5th or anything from the 6th or 9th Symphony. I couldn't find any free transcriptions and I can't buy them online.

Very cool. I guess I'm interested in it all. But for one piano more than two.

It;'s impossible to fit all of Mahler's textures on one piano while keeping the integrity of the music as much as possible. I suggest doing a transcription for 2 or more pianos. And even so, it still doesn't even begin to compare to what an orchestra can do.
