5.0 out of 5 stars
For piano playing fans of Beethoven's symphonies.,
By Luyckx Jonathan (Belgium) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beethoven Symphonies Nos. 1-5 Transcribed for Solo Piano (Dover Music for Piano) (Paperback)
I bought this book as a result of listening to the performance of it on CD. I have always enjoyed listening to Beethoven, and his symphonies have retained a place on my shelves for years. However, being a pianist, I never had a chance to actually play them. The way Liszt transcribed Beethoven's works onto piano is astounding, as he writes in a very natural way. There are, of course, some details of certain harmonies left out, but the overall impression remains remarkably similar. I look forward to being able to purchase the next book of the series when it is released.

The best piano music I can find,
This review is from: Beethoven Symphonies Nos. 1-5 Transcribed for Solo Piano (Dover Music for Piano) (Paperback)
This is a seriously amazing arrangement of some of the best music Beethoven ever wrote! While I am not the best pianist, some of the slow movements are within my grasp. I find the best part to be that it can also be used as a study score, as it is riddled with notes on the original orchestration.
