Transcendental - Transcriptions by Brahms and Godowsky by Ivan Ilic Ivan Ilic : Transcendental - Transcriptions by Brahms and Godowsky.
 Dazzling classical pianist.

Renowned for their technical difficulty, Ivan Ilić presents Leopold Godowsky's Studies on Frederic Chopin's études. Critic Harold C. Schonberg called them "the most impossibly difficult things ever written for the piano." Ilic also presents Johann Sebastian Bach's D minor Chaconne, transcribed to the left hand by Johannes Brahms. An interesting set of left-hand piano pieces from the greats (Bach and Chopin), as interpeted for a more contemporary setting.
