This site links to a number of Espressivo recordings made from transcriptions. As shown below, several composers are also known for their piano transcriptions.
Franz Liszt
The list of transcriptions and arrangements written by Franz Liszt is huge. See for example Wikipedia: Transcriptions by Franz Liszt. You will find links to a few recordings from Liszt’s transcriptions below:
Beethoven: Grand Septuor Op. 20
Complete recording of the transcription for piano four-hands. The score is available from the MuseScore website.
Beethoven: Symphonies
There are a few recordings from Liszt’s transcriptions for piano solo.
