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.

By the way, Liszt also planned to transcribe the quartets for piano but never executed the plan. As a substitute for the missing work, you will find Espressivo recordings made from the unaltered scores of the string quartets.

Carl Czerny

Mostly known by his didactic piano pieces, Czerny also wrote transcriptions for the piano.

Mozart: Requiem

Complete recording of the transcription for piano four-hands. The score is available from the MuseScore website.

Schubert’s string quartets such as D. 703 and D. 810 are great pieces of music. The author made recordings of these two quartets with the Espressivo piano. Don’t they sound as if they were written for the piano originally? The player pretends that he didn’t change of single note for the recordings.
