Hello and welcome to my YT channel. It is dedicated to all my students, who have taught me more than any teacher - thank you, I would not be the musician I am without you.
I would like to continue sharing my knowledge with everyone that would like to learn to play piano. Beginner or advanced, any age - as long as there is a will to learn - this channel is for you. I have been teaching in my studio and online for over 25 years and will always continue performing concerts. I encourage You to subscribe to my channel - you will only benefit if you are a piano student or just enjoy listening to wonderful music. Thank you, A.Yemtsov
Dear Mr. Yemtsov, might you have changed your mind to keep this score in your private collection? I have really enjoyed the quality of your other transcriptions and the one's floating around in the internet for this particular piece are just full of small mistakes. Maybe you might have changed your mind and would offer this transcription for sale. Kind regards
Alosha, you are amazing at putting down to paper by ear these super difficult transcriptions. Alas, Volodos like Horowitz with his Carmen Variations tended to modify his transcriptions constantly. I would love for you to attempt to subscribe the later CD version you were speaking about. I am in awe how accurate your hearing is. It's been a long time. I hope you're wel. Take care, Greg
You can also subscribe on my website to the concerts that I plan to produce. This way you won't miss any of my performances. This is at the very early stages of planning, but I would like to bring good classical piano concerts to Tasmania.
Great job, Alexey! That was, no doubt, a lot of work. Thanks for posting it. An observation: In measure 68, that D and E# in the L.H. in the first chord sounds GODAWFUL! 😬Your transcription is accurate, but I have to question why Volodos would play those notes. I think C and F# in the L.H. (with the A & D# in the R.H., thus creating a C diminished 7th chord) is MUCH better and more musically logical and pleasing. I do question your B & D# and D# & F# in the R.H., in the first beat of measure 157. Volodos sounds like he's actually playing C & D# and D & F# (creating a major tonality) then in measure 159 plays C & D# and D & F (creating a minor tonality) in the first beat. I definitely hear the minor 2nd shift from F# to F natural.
Hello Tom, Thank you for your comments. Honestly I don’t know how or why AV settled on the harmony in bar 68. His creative process is beyond me and I do not dare question it. However, after checking it - both the CD and video recordings - I must say that bar 68 is correct. Bar 157 - You are absolutely right to spot the misprint! Thank you. The bar 157 first measure must have a B# and D# in RH - just like in bar 159! I was struggling with the software for a very long time while doing Turkish March and had to edit a lot of PDF, creating manually stems going up and down. I just couldn’t find a way to write it in Sibelius. But thank you for picking these up. I see some other funny missing notes as well. I will have to re-print the Turkish March and make an update video. AY
You deserve way more views. These are the best transcriptions (yours) of the best arrangements (Volodos) of the best music (Rachmaninoff)! in my opinion of course.
I was under the impression that there was NO propriety in the Baroque or Classical eras of changing notes or rhythm, but that in the late Classical and Romantic compositions, extemperaneous note sequences and rythmical ( rubattos for exzample/ peddling ) were not only expected, but the were in the music, provisions for substituytion?
Thank you so much for sharing. I've heard also a beautiful transcription of Op.21 no.7 played by Josh Wright. Is it possible to purchase these scores? I would love to play it.......Thank you very much.
Hello, please stay tuned, the score of op21 no7 is going to be available in November for a free download just as other scores on my website (I will never sell them). AY
Fantastic and congratulations! I know in part how exhausting this is.... PLEASE transcribe the "Ruslan and Lyudmila" ...this piece haunts me for years...
Hello Andreas, I will certainly attempt to transcribe Ruslan and Ludmila. Not sure of the recording quality, but I will see if it is possible. R&L will be very challenging.
@@alexeyyemtsov Hey Alexey, thanks for replying. I only know of the video that i uploaded under another username 'listen and learn'. there are a few recordings (however only audio) available ....hard to find...i'll try to find one again since the original i had i lost...too bad. there is another video available of a Tristan Pfaff here on youtube playing this. that sounds already pretty volodos sheets like....
