ziegeunerweisen music?
Somebody mentioned Feuermann playing Ziegeunerweisen(sp?). Is there a cello transcription of that? If so, where is it available? While I'm on the subject, is there a cello transcription for the Carmen Fantasy? (the famous violin one, not the one by Buxton Orr, which I have, but really don't know the themes in it)

Re: ziegeunerweisen music?
Werner-Mifune has published an arangement of the Ziguenerweisen. Feuermann's recording is only the firt part with some cuts(perhaps the second half was intended and never recorded or lost). It's tricky but a lot of fun. It was apparantly common for cellists to play thier own transcriptions- Piatigorsky references this in his autobiography.

There is no carmen as yet, but somewhere I sense Thomas Werner-Mifune transcribing as we speak.

Zigeunerweisen
Any ideas where to find that transcription? Do you know the publisher?

Actually, there already is a Werner Thomas-Mifune arrangement of the Carmen Fantasy for 5 cellos. I got it in Cologne last April.

Oh, ok, is it Werner Thomas-Mifune (not Thomas Wener-Mifune or Mifune Werner-Thomas)? Who can remember...

How is the Carmen? Is it hard?
