Virtuoso Piano Transcription

Johann Sebastian Bach / Fazil Say: 
Fantasie and Fuge G minor

Sheet music for piano

The Turkish pianist and composer Fazil Say has from the age of sic begun each day with the performance of a keyboard work by Bach; his concert programmes include both numerous original compositions and transcriptions.

His own piano transcriptions of the well-known Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor and the Fantasy an Fugue in g minor are neither mere incorporations of the pedal voice with its almost continous ostinato theme into the left hand of the piano part, nor purely virtuoso ornamentations of the original version. His intention is to produce an imaginative transcription of the relatively two-dimensional organ registration utilising the tonal possibilities of the piano.
