Thanks, @Animisha

BartK The Henle edition was published in 2024 so they might not have it yet but it's not too expensive.

Oops, you're right, my uni library doesn't have it! Not only that, but there are only two libraries that show up in the "inter-library loan" request system, and those libraries are overseas. So no dice!

Also, I poked around online, and it's not on Amazon US (although it's on Amazon UK), and I can't find anywhere to buy it. How ironic!

    Henle has an app. You could install it and buy the digital version.

      Greta99 Henle has an app.

      I knew that, but if my memory is correct, you can't get the pdfs out of the app, is that right?

      I play from the forScore app, so I want my pdfs in there.

        I have not used the app, but this is from Henle Support page:
        In the settings menu of the score you will find a print option. On Android devices you automatically have the option of printing to PDF. On iOS devices you can use a zoom gesture in the print preview to create a PDF, which you can then also use in other apps.

          Thanks!

          Hmm, that sounds promising!

          Can you play any of those @pianoloverus ? If so, please please pretty please participate in the recital, would love to hear it 😃

          Wow that is pristine indeed, thanks @pianoloverus !

          Hey @BartK is this basically the arrangement you played or is the Henle version written different? The Ossia più facile starts on page 4 in this pdf.

            You can! From the Henle app, view the score in "print mode" (this is the same layout as their printed scores) and then print to PDF.

            @twocats good to know, Thanks!

            Yes, this is the same ossia. I made a few modifications where I mixed the ossia with some parts of the main score; mainly the octaves in the bass because the ossia sounded a bit thin without those. But this looks indeed the same and it's what Liszt wrote.

            @BartK awesome, thank you for checking! And @pianoloverus thank you again for finding that score, it sooo much easier to read than the one I found!

            5 days later

            Here is the "nice walking tempo" piece that I wanted to learn next:

            1. Thornton's Walk by Martin Phipps
              It's from the soundtrack of the BBC mini-series "North and South", an adaptation of Elizabeth Gaskell's novel.

            And then...

            Sophia I also sense a theme developing... Wild Horses, Wild Horseman, so what's next...

            Well, I couldn't resist when I saw the title of this piece 😂:

            1. Dragon Rider by Hans-Günter Heumann
              I think it fits the theme? There is also the "Halloween Witch Ride" by the same composer, but it will have to wait till October...

            WieWaldi Yes, actually, all levels. Very nice arrangements.

            This time I picked something easier because I was on a business trip and didn't have that much time to practice. It's a Burgmüller etude from the Eighteen Characteristic Studies set. Quite fun to play. 🙂

            Quick Study List for 2025

            1. George Frideric Handel, Passacaille (variations 1-8).
            2. Enrique Granados, Danzas Españolas, no. 2 Oriental
            3. Scott Joplin, Maple Leaf Rag (without trio)
            4. Schubert-Liszt, Ständchen (ossia più facile)
            5. Burgmüller, La fileuse, op. 109, no. 18

              BartK As with all your quick studies, wow!! And this last one is something easier...

                Animisha As with all your quick studies, wow!! And this last one is something easier...

                Yes, compared to my previous pieces. 😆 This is about RCM 8 and I didn't really play it at full tempo. It should be much faster.

                Thanks!

                I had such a flying start! But then, life happened. However, I can now add two more pieces to my list. One of the pieces is actually not a piece but a book: Piano Adventures' Technique and Artistry 1. Every single one of the pieces is too easy to add to the list, but I learned them all and I count this as one piece. It is a book that I for a long time considered buying. I never did that, and I am glad, because now that a friend lent it to me, I am a bit disappointed. I think they could have added some more technical principles.
                The quick study piece (Lollipop's waltz) that I add is rather horrendous. But I learned it at last.

                1. J.S. Bach - Arioso from cantata 156 (lesson piece)
                2. John Thompson - Hide and seek (quick study)
                3. Erik Satie - Petite prélude à la journée (quick study)
                4. J.C. Bach - Prelude in A minor (quick study)
                5. Andrew Lloyd Webber - Memory, from Cats (quick study)
                6. Sarah Konecsni - Bells in the mist (quick study)
                7. Edward MacDowell - To a wild rose (lesson piece; see our 3rd recital)
                8. Linda Niamath - Lollipop's waltz (quick study)
                9. Piano Adventures' Technique and Artistry 1
