Well, the Op30 scan was a pdf made directly from HP's own s/w,
whereas the Op3 scan from a year later was made by producing
separate bmps from XP's s/w, then the pdf was made using Irfanview.
The contrast and clarity are better this way.

Hi all, I would like to know if exists a piano 2 hands transcription of the Piano Concerto n.2 op.18 by Sergey Rachmaninoff, especially the wonderful secondo movement. I heard about a piano solo transcription by Gary D. Lloyd, but it's available only in midi format.
Could anyone help me please? thanks alot in advance!
best regards
Luca

If you mean a "true 2H", i.e. piano part interpolated with the orchestra the answer is no.
A very bad "false 2H", i.e. piano part only with some little reduced orchestral parts when the piano is silent, was circulating since 2003 (attached)

According to Opus Transcribisticum, he has the only complete 2H reductions of the Trio, Op.97, the 4-hands sonata, Op.6, and the Violin Sonata, Op.30 #3.

Does anybody know if they are available at any libraries or archives?
Was my repost of Op30 No3 (and Op3 (not previously in the public
domain to the best of my knowledge)) to your satisfaction?

Btw, thank you Caprotti for the Rachmaninov.

It was absolutely to my satisfaction. Thank you very much again, to both you and Caprotti. I wish I could do more here than just shamelessly request stuff (like a Winkler-ized Op. 96? :P ), but all of my scores are pretty mainstream. The only one I have that might be of interest is an 2H extended version of the Dance of the Hours from La Gioconda, different from the ones on IMSLP (it seems to be a 1908 Schirmer with no arranger specified). If there was interest I'd try to upload it.

Well, here it is, but again it's not of the greatest scan quality.
