I so dearly wish he published sheet music for this. I haven't been able to find another transcription of these excerpts that are of comparable quality. Gould for the prelude and Busoni for the Trauermarsch come close, but absolutely nothing for the hair-raising finale
Well, Wagner himself said his music is better than it sounds. I think a piano transcription that is more or less true to the original such as this one is a good example of that statement.
Simply a masterpiece of transcription. I've watched countless times. Actually, this is one of my all time favorite RUclips music videos.
This video is criminally under-watched. The numbers should be so much higher. This is a master at work!
Well this used to be on a different channel and it got shot down...
00:16 Duo
10:58 Funeral March
17:53 Conflagration of Valhalla
My hero.

is there any score of that ? many years i look for
Where does the great sound quality come from? Is it remastered in any way?
Why do they turn the lights on and off in the background??
