2nded. yes i do believe it's likely the same guy. i agree that Senza is super lovely, especially those jazzy nods. thanks for posting so i could listen to some of his other pieces. only hope there's some score publishing that's been done whether for the Disney or any of his other pieces. :)

in the Spring/Easter mood, this is a bit of a YouTube find..

I wonder if this arrangement actually exists or is accessible. I am seeing in the notes that the pianist is Len Luscombe.

Easter Parade ('In Your Easter Bonnet') - have to love this little tune !

For this particular arrangement I'd simply contact the channel owner, who links to his own comprehensive player piano site.

There are vast online libraries of MIDI files produced from player piano rolls. Here's one for Easter Parade,as played by Frank Milne. It usually takes a bit of work to edit them back into a easily human readable form. Luckily this one is based off a human performance, as those hand-crafted for piano-players require you have to have twenty fingers and the stamina of Marc-André Hamelin.

This could fall into so many different post discussions, but since I'm here... a transcription of music from a Soviet-era operetta.

Here's a playable notation of Alexander Tsafman's fantasy on themes from Isaak Dunayevsky's 1947 operetta 'Free Wind" taken from sheets in Alfor's archive.

(I'm not sure this belongs on this thread but I couldn't find a more suitable thread)
Does anyone have Maurice Whitney's arrangement of Embraceable You?

I'm also looking for advanced arrangements of Stranger in Paradise. I've seen very advanced arrangements of the Borodin quartet(?) that this song is based on, but that's not really what I want.

Thanks!

And This Is My Beloved is from the Second String Quartet, Nocturne movement.

Stranger In Paradise is from Prince Igor, Polovtsian Dances, Gliding Dance of the Maidens.

Sorry I can't help with a transcription.
