Did you work this out by ear? Truly awesome if you did. I was making inroads into Grieg's Piano Concerto when I was 12, but my dumbed-down approximation of Tarkus in my teens missed a lot of subtleties. For some reason I thought the time signature was 10/8. One thing you didn't show was the ascending-by-tones major chords with the 4th of each chord in the bass. Try that - it's a classic Emerson device.

Yeah, I'm impressed. Is there anyway I can get this sheet music?

This was a lot of fun to watch! As a kid I used to read the sheet music along with this piece, as well as scores of classical works. Thanks for posting. The sequencing must have taken a lot of work. Much appreciated.
