This is my first Youtube video that I make.  :)
Have you listened to this brilliant orchestral transcription made by Leopold Stokowski??

Opinions??

The masterpiece tell the performer what to do, and not the performer telling the piece what it should be like, or the cocomposer what he ought to have composed.

It starts off good -then descends into a horrible noise -because the sustaining instuments start quarreling with eachother too much -the orchestra sucks as an instrument -
When a search is in progress, something will be found.

ture a lot of the time with regard to transcriptions of delicate piano pieces but it works in the right hands,

i.e.
Tippett Concerto for Double String Orchestra
