Does anyone have the sheet music for this?

[penguinpuss]

I believe it was Liszt's transcription of Don Juan opera.

Doesn't he play the Prelude (Op. 9 No. 1) too?

I read that Scriabin was injured from overuse especially playing Liszt's 'Dante' Sonata

Interesting foul note right in the beginning...

I wonder if performers who play left hand repertoire that can use both hands get frustrated when their right hand is just sitting there and the left is doing all the work! :)

It was balakirev's Islamey. His music is waay harder than anything liszt wrote.

I'm no historian. All I know is I read he was paralyzed due to syphilis.

[alnisc]

can you assure that?

to my knowledge, his right hand was injured while he was exercising Liszt hungarian rhapsody.

He was.. according to a biography I read on him.. he regained the use of his right hand, but his entire right side was paralyzed.
