I agree with bingo - Horowitz rarely played any of these altered works twice, and there are various versions of Liszt's Rhapsody transcribed by various people (I am aware of at least 4 versions). Horowitz never wrote these down and we are left with others having to transcribed (Skinner and the Jensen versions being the best known).bingo wrote: ↑Mon Nov 13, 2023 10:10 pm Horowitz rarely played any of these altered works the same way twice.
There's at least 5 distinct transcriptions to sheet or MIDI around since the 90s, not counting any by successive pianists who further adapted his versions. There are even more performing versions of the Carmen Variations.
At least they're fairly straightforward renderings with lots of repeated measures that can be swiftly transferred from PDF to notation format, further helped by starting with the Liszt original.
There are plenty of MIDIs around, but really your attitude isn't helping...margarethaverhard wrote: ↑Tue Nov 14, 2023 6:57 pm guys... please... every pianist knows the "history" of this transcription and the MANY versions in pdf.
but: i am looking for a musescore or midi file (preferable musescore or finale or...).
Not the PDF, I have almost all versions...

There are two complete 2H transcriptions of Cavalleria Rusticana on IMSLP, one (arr Mugnone) has intro lyrics in Italian, the other in German. The passage marked "Largo maestoso" circa p37 should get you there. [Edit: this was also suggested the last time someone asked for this!]
