If I remember right all the Brahms songs were transcribed for solo piano by Robert Keller, and published by Simrock. They were in 3 volumes. One worth trying to hunt down.

Keller was a prolific arranger. Some of the Brahms lieder are listed under his IMSLP arranger page: https://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Keller,_Robert/Arranger

Apparently, there is currently a lively demand for new Brahms Lied transcriptions on pianorarescoreshit.com.
Nice try Mombeek.
In Bach we trust.

Pachelbel's Chaconne in D minor P.41, transcribed by Jascha Horenstein. For some weird reason it's named 'Passacaglia'.
(Scan by Makoto Natsui, the Japanese doctor/physician, who used to offer a lot of rare piano scores in the early 2000s for download).

Thank you. IMSLP has the transcription by Stradal.
What is the difference between a chaconne and a passacaille ?

History and different courtly traditions has blurred the two terms but at times the chaconne was more associated with a dance for women, and the passacaglia, for men.

Does anyone have a piano transcription of Song of the Birds as frequently played by Pablo Casals and more recently by Yo Yo Ma? Thanks!

For those of you who can read NY Times articles, here's an article about Ma playing the piece as an encore after a very recent concerto performance.
