Thought some kind folks here might be interested in supporting this. The final scores printed out on the special staff paper look pretty nifty, I must say. Thanks for looking!

It's an awesome project! Would be great if one day you'd get a publisher - sure, certain transciptions might be more for pianophiles but some of them - like the lied transcriptions - are not out of reach for, erm, us "human" pianists wink

Just pledged support on Kickstarter!

I think for anyone interested in the art of piano transcription, this project deserves all the support it can get.

Koji was kind enough to share with me several manuscript scans of his wonderful transcriptions (quite a number of which can be heard on Youtube), so it's only fair to give back a bit. Best of luck for this project!

Now fully funded! If you still wish to contribute, it will go towards having all of them nicely bound in a complete volume for more people. My thanks to those here for their generosity.

I am happy to add my name to the list of supporters and delighted to read that the project has already fully funded.

You have generously sent me a couple of your transcriptions in the past; this was the least I could do in appreciation.

Bravo!

Regards,


BruceD

I'm a supporter!

In fact I'm the KAS (Koji Attwood Supporter) grin

I'm really glad that the project reached its goal, and while I wasn't able to provide too much really (I'm towards the bottom part of the scale) I still feel proud to have supported this! smile

Way to go Koji! Well done!

Less than a week to go, and for clarification, if you donate now, it will entail a significant savings from the price I'll be eventually offering for the scores at on my website, probably about a 50% savings.

Thanks again for all the support!

It's very nice. Some of the professors in the piano department here might be interested. Thanks for sharing! If they decide they want some I'll pledge a sum on their behalf smile
