Misc. Notes Note: where the piano part is quiet, Liszt arranged the tuttis for both pianos. In this edition, Liszt's text is the same, but both tuttis are rearranged to the second piano (in order to keep the piano part unaltered).
scan: score scanned at 600dpi
filter: score filtered with 2-point algorithm explained in High Quality Scanning. I provide the original scanned version and the filtered, because the filter does some changes (smoothening, sharpening borders) and some portions of the scan get lost sometimes (when they are too small e.g.) - so you can choose your favorite. You may ask me for a manually cleaned version.This file is part of the Sibley Mirroring Project.
