Yeah there's this mp3 I have of Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 and it's a trancsription for 2 pianos (I think, since it says "Dueling Pianos") and I'd like to have the score of it. There are lots of changes in the Friska. I uploaded it here.
It sounds pretty cool.

Wow, that is really cool, I have no idea where to find it, though.

Yeah. From what I hear of the Horowitz transcription, this is very similar to it. I've never heard the Horowitz transcription though... Could this be it? But it does say "Dueling pianos" so......

This is Arcadi Volodos recording of Horowitz's Hr2 and is only played on one piano by one pianist. This is some scary stuff. I think it's almost identical with a few exceptions so the sheetmusic for Horowitz's version should do just fine.

I see. Well I have the Horowitz transcription.
Wow, Volodos. I've heard his Rondo Alla Turka too. Crazy.

I don't know about the sheetmusic, but the transcription is very interesting. I think I prefer this one to the original

check this out: comparison between Horowitz and Volodos HR2

http://www.geocities.com/piano_wizard/horowitz.html then click on liszt.

personally i like the horowitz recording better but the volodos is great as well especially his repeated notes in the friska.

dis is down to taste, but da doctah's cadenza is just phenomenal - better than all of horowitz's additions combined

When I first heard Hamelin's Cadenza I thought it wasn't very good.

Now I really like it.
