Don Quixote - Grand Pas de Deux (Piano) - Anthony Goldstone transcription

Grand Pas de Deux from the Ballet "Don Quixote" composed by Ludwig Minkus (Kitri's variation by Riccardo Drigo) in a lovely piano transcription by Anthony Goldstone.
I just received the sheet music 4 weeks ago, so everything is still a bit of a mess, especially Kitri's variation. Impatient as I am, I couldn't wait to share my excitement about this piece. I'll do a new recording in some months.
The sheet music is under copyright, please refer directly to www.divine-art.co.uk/DAhome.htm

....and thank you, Anthony, for your transcription. He was a great British pianist, who sadly passed away three years ago. Sadly missed.

Dear Mr Sing,
Your piano performance is fantastic!, You play those excerpts in great detail & with such strong devotion. You also play as though you are a lover of great ballet music. I wished you could perform this wonderful score in its COMPLETE format. I have complete scores (on CD) of virtually all of the great ballets, performed by orchestras/symphonies all over the world; however, I've yet to hear (and/or find on CD) any complete scores performed only by piano. Of course, there are CDs of the pianist just playing "practice" pieces for dancers, but I'm not talking about those CDs. I wished I could find CDs of PROFESSIONAL piano performers, like yourself, who put their own interpretations into their music, while also playing the complete scores. May I ask, of all of the ballet excerpts you've played, which excerpt was the most challenging and/or difficult and do you have a favorite composer? I love Tchaikovsky, Minkus, Adam, Prokofiev, etc... however, I'm having trouble finding Auber's score on CD (his Grand Pas Classique). Thank you for your beautiful performances & please post more ballet pieces. You are a precious gem!

[@xswooshx]

Well done. Very clean and dynamic.

[@chrisamador1216]

I’m no music expert, but I’m sure that every other dancer who’s watched this will agree that it’s a really accurate and beautiful version of the pas de deux!

[@sepoyi2546]

I would totally enjoy playing this piece if I played the piano. You sure show how much you enjoy this piece. Each time I listen to this pas de deux in my CD, my breathing is affected like I were executing the steps again, even as I listen to your video right now. You play beautifully! ...thank you.
