Excerpt from Concerto in G; 2nd movement marked Adagio Assai.Music by Maurice RavelOriginal for piano and orchestra.Played in the original key (E major). First arranged for solo guitar by Alex (user: hyperboreal. Watch him do it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdvzHDd9weg and subscribe to his awesome channel). I started learning this by watching him. Then I took the score out of the library and extended it a little bit further into the first oboe, clarinet and flute statements. Beyond that the range of the piano parts are greatly extended, the hands widely separated on the keyboard. Therefore a true arrangement (without too much octave displacement) would have to be done largely in artificial harmonics. Someone with the harmonics-playing prowess of a Carlos Barbosa-Lima could do it quite nicely up to about the 57th measure. I'm not that person! :DI stop here at the 41st measure, fwiw.Taylor NS54-CE, hybrid classicalStandard tuning [ More Detail ]

Rare. Rene Leibowitz conducts the London Symphony OrchestraLeonard Pennario, piano1963Rene Leibowitz (1913-1972) was born in Warsaw but moved to Paris in his teens and there began a long, illustrious conducting career. Particularly interested in contemporary music, he studied with Webern and Schoenberg and wrote a detailed analysis of twelve-tone music. A keen ear for instrumental coloration (Ravel was his orchestration teacher) was evident in his kaleidoscopic transcriptions of such works as Bach's Passacaglia and Fugue in C (for double orchestra!). But he is best known for his often highly personal renditions of many staples of the Classical and Romantic repertoire. [Quoted from http://www.rediscovery.us/Welcome.html] [ More Detail ]

Andante sostenutonote: The premature ending to the clip is because it has maxed out Youtube's 10 minute limit. (The actual timing for this first movement went just over by a few seconds). I will tag the missing final bars onto the clip of the second movement when I get round to uploading that. [ More Detail ]
