Another one of the score reductions where 10% of the measures require 90% of the attention:

Hi, does anyone know any solo transcriptions of the Schubert Trio D. 929? I mean the "complete" transcription that has all four movements. I can only find Ludwig Stark's solo version for movement 2 and 3 but was wondering if there is a solo version of all four movements, Thanks. Tony

tonylucuchu - worth checking our Opus Transcribisticum (OT) pages, as gives the vast majority of known transcriptions (it my bible on such matters).

For this one I only know that Lack did the 3rd movement - not aware of any other transcriptions of the sonata at this stage.

Worth checking OT for your Schubert inquiry.

Thanks, Malcolm. I went on OT and found the Lack transcription was listed under "for two pianos". I was wondering if you have the score for Lack's solo version. Thanks.
Tony

Sorry Tony, I don't have the Lack version

This piece is a favourite, and AFAIK Stark has done the longest transcription. Friedrich Hermann (sometimes misspelled as Ehrmann) has done a subset of the Stark movements. There are more recent fragments of transcriptions on Musescore. Some are duplicates of the above without attribution guven.

Thanks for your reply. Since Stark has transcribed the second and third movement, I am particularly looking for transcriptions of movement 1 and 4. Do you know any modern (or older) transcriptions of mvt 1 and 4? Thanks again.

I checked the mentioned works and no one seems to exist in 2H

May I add my preferite wishlist in the field of non-existing 2H ?

Brahms 3 Piano Quartets, 3 Piano Trios, 2 Clarinet Sonatas, Double Concerto (cello and violin) (full transcriptions, not separate mov.)

Berlioz S.Fantastique (not Liszt of course)

Dvorak Piano Quintet op.81


Verdi Quattro pezzi sacri

Mozart ... all the violin sonatas, Sinfonia Concertante, c min.Messe
I know the 4H and 2P transcriptions of the Dvorak Quintet but would like to know if anyone has the solo transcription.

Hi, does anyone know a solo version of the Shostakovich 5th Symphony Op. 47? I know there is a version for 4 hands but that's not what I am looking for. I also know there is a solo version of the 8th quartet. Any similar arrangement of the symphonies?
Thanks,
Tony
