Where did you get the informations about those transcriptions? They are not quoted in the frontispice of any edition of opp.18 and 36.

Dear Caprotti, I only have the following information:Caprotti wrote:Where did you get the informations about those transcriptions? They are not quoted in the frontispice of any edition of opp.18 and 36.
It was published by Simrock Berlin, KatNr. 64 und 65.

Hello everyone,
I've seen on YT (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWqltHXG ... re=related) a Wagner "The rides of the Valkyries" transcription, for eight pianos.
Somebody know of who is the transcription? There mode to recover it?
Another thing; exist any transcription of "The rides of the Valkyries" only for two hands?
Thanks for the help.

If the 8 piano version of Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries is of interest,
why not check out the truly astounding left hand version by the great
Artur Cimirro?

Going to the other extreme, there's always the 52 piano version,
played by 103 (= 51x2 + 1x1) pianists (I think).

Proof, if proof were needed, that 1 > 16 > 206!

Artur played this for me when I recorded a concert of his a couple of months ago. It is quite ashtonising, but it really does take alot out of him to play it...Timtin wrote:If the 8 piano version of Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries is of interest,

Hello Timtin,
the Cimirro transcription is good, but I don't like too....
Curious and interesting also the 52 piano version; but even this, don't like me much.....
Between all, I still prefer the eight piano transc. (but not much)
Strange that Liszt never wrote a transcript of this piece....
