Hi,
I am currently transcribingn a piano piece which is originally intended to be for 2 piano players.
The problem is, that I'm only One guy, not two, so I gotta solve that problem by altering the piano sheets.
Yet another problem is what happens with the sound when I change the piano sheets. It screws kinda up and I don't know how to make a "for four hands"pience into "for two hands" piece...
Yay, this is so awkward.

P.S : Excuse me for my bad grammer, it's kinda late.
P.S2 ( Nah sorry, no Playstation 2 =( ) : Is this even the wrong place ?

With this, the two players are usually for a larger range of sound. So, you just basically gotta listen to the piece you're transcribing, and know it really well. Based on that, you -- yourself -- must then decide which parts can be cut, which parts can be played by one person, etc.

In the end of all things, you're gonna have to simply cut out some of the piece.
