[fergal]

Any one know any Earl Wild song transcriptions? Just discovered them, and there's loads: Rachmaninov and Gershwin a'plenty! Brilliant writing! Hunt them down fellow brethren!

[pianonut]

where?  buy them or are there some free ones?

[brokenagraffe]

i have his transciption of Rachmaninov's Vocalise which i downloaded from an already shutdown sheet music site months ago.

i want his transcription of Tchaikovsky's Four Swans. I heard a minute-long audio clip of him playing it and it was the shytes.

I saw his gerschwin virtuosic etudes performed once and they were fabulous.

I humbly agree.  Wild's Gershwin and Rachmaninov transcriptions are wonderful.  I have the CD's and listen to them all the time.

Earl Wild himself.

oh obvious answer

I think that Wild's greatest transcription is the Adagio by Alessandro Marcello.  Beautiful and with absolutely perfect voicing.  When I heard him play it live, it brought tears to my eyes.

[freddychopin]

I'm going to look at that Adagio. I'm a great fan of his recordings and I'm going to see and hear him live in Amsterdam this summer. (His 90th birthday recital with all Chopin ballades... )

does anyone have a MP3 file of his transcription of Rachmaninov's Vocalise?

I have it.  PM me and I'll send it to you.

[donjuan]

Does anyone here have Earl Wild's ossias for Gounod-Liszt: Waltz from Faust?

[jchurch1]

Does anyone play his 'Reminiscence of Snow White' transcription? It's beautiful... I'm learning it and not doing too badly... a long way to go though

But I notice no one seems to have recorded it other than Earl Wild himself. Does anyone know of other performances/recordings?

Also, his Dance of the Four Swans & Mexican Hat Dance transcriptions??
