Dear Skip
I completely agree on that, I did not mention this because my message was
getting too long... Wagner especially, is so beatiful and siple without
losing any of the horizontal and vertical construction elements, I came
even to prefer, especially Bruennhilde amd Siegfried awakening and
Siegfried'journey on the Rhine, GG transcription to the original (!) I
would be interested to know more opinions about  Wagner piano
transcriptions by GG.
