I'm sorry fhimpsl I didn't see your post before.fhimpsl wrote:These impromptu piano performances by the great Erich v. Korngold would provide an exceptional opportunity for a suitably talented (and ear pitch-perfect) transcriber (such as our resident greatest transcriber, Mercuzio perhaps?) This style of improvised romantic performance is all but lost today. The second one is a personal favorite, but they all demonstrate Korngold's immense keyboard skills even during his later, Hollywood days. In any event, these are certainly worth a listen!

All Best,

I will listen to your suggested videos. The problem seems to be the bad quality of the recordings that make very difficult to transcribe the music.
Anyway I will see in future if something can be done.
Have a nice 2017.
