Schubert-Kabalevsky

[marinomau]

Hello, I recommend the Kabalevsky transcription for piano & orchestra of the Schubert Fantasy D 940 for piano 4 hands.
I have found on youtube a recording with
Emil Gilels, piano
Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra
Kirill Kondrashin, conductor
Live in Grand Hall of Moscow Conservatoire, oct. 12, 1962

Since it's not available on a cd, I write the links:

If you like it (I am sure you'll do) all you have to do to have an mp3 is copy and paste the links on http://www.youtube-mp3.org/
Enjoy!

Thank you very much for pointing out this YouTube clip. I had never heard the transcription for orchestra.

Also, thank you for pointing out the YouTube to MP3 Converter. In the past, I had gone through multiple steps to extract the audio track from YouTube videos. This service is easy, fast and convenient.

Now, if they could only figure out a way to upgrade crappy audio to make it sound better, or to convert YouTube video into something better than MP3. For HD video on YouTube that have higher quality audio, it is a shame to downgrade it.

Better thing to do is get the video (using Fild2HD.com or clipnabber.com/clipnabber_classic.php as a  couple of for instances) and the demux the audio off it.

You're welcome, Amphissa.
Meanwhile I've found a better converter: http://www.video2mp3.net/
It's always the same procedure: copy and paste the url of the video, but the audio quality seems a bit better

There is a CD recording available now - Emily Gilels Legacy Vol.9 http://www.qobuz.com/album/emil-guilels-piano-lheritage-de-emil-guilels-volume-9/0723721602758

Now, if I could just find a recording of the 2H alone version of the Fantasy!

BTW a good solution for extracting from YouTube is JDownloader. As soon as it grabs the URL off the clipboard it looks to see all the download offerings - FLV, MP4, MP3 and lets you pick which you'd like.
