Saint-Saens Introduction & Rondo Cappricio
on: July 14, 2015, 05:31:46 PM
Hi,

I'm NOT asking for sheets. All I'm asking is, is there any solo piano transcription/paraphrase on Saint-Saens' Introduction and Rondo Cappricio? I've found Debussy's 2-piano arrangement, and I can transcribe it for solo piano myself, but I'd really have a transcription by someone famous, so I could add it to repertoire.

Any such thing?

THanks!

I do not believe there is one and I am rather glad there is not. The piece is perfect as it is and should not be messed with.

Not sure where you'd get the sheets, though.
