Thank you both for the feedback.
The S&B link is very useful, and it answers the question of
which symphony is/was available in piano solo format (No2).

There is a Two Piano arrangement by Maurice Jacobson of RVW's Tallis published by Curwen. Maybe you could get that by interlibrary loan and thin it out a bit? Maybe some nice person here has that edition?
Here is my 2 hand transcription of VW Fantasia on a Theme by T Tallis. It was a tough nut to crack because of the massive chords. I tried to keep all the chords to within a tenth (not always though). It is in PD in the USA, where I am from, but I decided to submit it without my name on it to avoid any problems. Enjoy it and please give me feedback on any playability problems.
PS Sibelius 2nd will be coming soon. Another tough nut.

Dear Caprotti,
My thanks also for the rare 2-hand versions of the Schubert chamber works. These look to be wonderful to play. I remember downloading from IMSLP all the Beethoven chamber music in 2-hand versions, and that those were all your postings as well! So thanks for those too...
All Best,
Frank

I'd like to echo the opinions of Frank.
Judging by the excellent quality of the above VW/Tallis transcription,
I can't wait to see the upload of the Sibelius Symphony No2.
Thank you rqsrqs - it looks like Alex has some stiff competition!

These are the 2 Sinfonias from Handel's great Oratorio 'Solomon'.
The second one might be quite familiar!
