HAHA DA WORLD PREMIERE KOJI. I would like to some some of those scores (i already have recuerdos and another Schumann…)

Randomly, i don’t know what TBA is

and wtf the last piece on the program of Huangci (funny she is in the program anyway) is that a comp of her own?

The Wristband of da ZIFF reminds me of another mofo :comme: :comme:

3

TBA is that most wikkid of all rep: “To be announced”
I guess Claire is doing the entire Pletnev arrangement (most people only do the Sugar Plum Fairy)

4

Are any of your scores available?

5

Some of them are listed on the Opus Transcribisticum site; trying to get Schott interested in publishing them, we’ll see.

6

sounds EPIC!!! Wish I could go… Randomly your section looks like a beast!!

7

Tube channel (thanks to da Bren):

8

Are your scores available for download anywhere? The site you mentioned didn’t seem to provide links, which is a pity as it would be fantastic to have a look!

9

PM me, I’d be happy to pass along some scans (handwritten though, I’m afraid). Anima sibeliused the Recuerdos.

10

id love to see the recuerdos, anima! i would appreciate a copy.

11

12

Fantastic. Will the concert be recorded?

13

dude, ur portion complete overwhlemz everyone elze’s

:wood: :wood: :wood: :wood:

14

I’ll just try not to embarrass myself too much–definitely looking forward to hearing the Firebird, which should kick some major assio and Mykola plays the hell out of the Moses, just for starters. Should be a great (if long) concert.
Mei-ting’s performances from last year have been posted, I particularly enjoyed his Rosenkavalier transcription, and 1838 version of the Paganini. :ziff: :pimp:

15

yeah, I was just thinking,

I’d love to hear that Firebird… such a fantastic transcription (not the best competition piece per say… wish we’d here it more).

I also want to hear your arrangements (i’m jealous).

Composing/arranging is something that I want to do more of myself… possible Theme and Variations on a theme of Tetris?

16
