Meditation from Thais
Does anybody know which arrangement of the Massenet Meditation from Thais Pat Sheridan played on his Lollipops album? I would very much like to learn it.

In which key does Mr. Sheridan play this piece?

Re: Meditation from Thais
If you have the free composition software Musescore (http://musescore.com/), there's a version for tuba arranged by one of the community members (http://musescore.com/user/329961/scores/292776). I think it's fairly accurate to the original, and as a bonus, you can easily just transpose the score up or down with just a few clicks! It should at least serve as a way to become familiar with the piece, if you're not willing to read from the original.

Re: Meditation from Thais
If you want to play the violin part with the piano accompaniment, available for free from IMSLP, you have to play the part in D major.
Engraving and transposing the solo part is doable with not too much trouble as seen with th Musescire sample. Doing the same with the piano part is very much harder.

Re: Meditation from Thais
When I played this piece I just used the violin part.

Re: Meditation from Thais
I agree with this approach of reading. Not everybody does, so as hinted in my current signature, I made a bass clef version available for free. It fits Marsick’s piano score that is available for free from IMSLP.J.c. Sherman wrote:Ditto...Mark E. Chachich wrote:When I played this piece I just used the violin part.

I was interested in your transcription, but the link seems to hate me...

If you experience problems with joining, send me your address via the mail button to the right of here, and I will send you an invitation. From which you may join directly as it equals a pre-approval.
Very rarely I have to reject applications. Some of my editions have, without asking, been put up on sites that I have no relation to. Even with the logo of an organisation unknown to me. I will not disclose my criteriae for doing so, but it is always a good idea to identify oneself as an instrumentalist or even better to reply to my Welcome-mail.
