I started learning this piece back in March 2025. It quickly became one of my biggest challenges, as I had to memorize it in less than a month and a half, which is generally very difficult when the composer thinks in a polyphonic way. Or is it just me who sees it that way?

In the end, I succeeded, and this year I had the opportunity to play it at several concerts. In the meantime, I changed the piece in various ways and adjusted the chords, so it is relatively far from the original version. Since there was no reasonable free sheet music available on the internet, I decided to share my version. So, to be clear, this is not a transcription of the original version. It is a transcription of one of my recordings. I wrote it as a four-part piece, although the composition is more or less in six parts. I didn't want to write it in the simplest way possible, so that you can see where the individual voices are going.

And one more thing because of the comments on the last videos. The audio is NOT recorded on an acoustic piano. It is recorded on a Yamaha CLP-745 keyboard. This is just for those who can tell by ear and then accuse it of being MIDI or AI or whatever :D

Once again, I made almost 50 recordings. I tried to choose the one with the most momentum, which I think was recording number 34 from December 12, 2025.
