I'm looking for a piano part to the Eccles sonata that has been transposed from g minor to a minor, so that i can play it in solo tuning.
Anybody know where I can find one?

Double Bass Eccles in A minor?

lemur only has the part in g minor (which i have), not a minor... i'm hoping to avoid hours of work entering the music into finale to transpose it
I'd make my own. The first mvt accompaniment is okay, but the 2nd mvt accompaniment is way too busy and covers the bass, in my opinion. It should not take very long to do this.
Wow, is that kosher? Was it originally a figured bass-style part, so no one will get mad at you for doing your own realization?
Well, the Eccles wasn't written for the bass, and the bass they had then was very different from what we have now, so I have no problem coming up with my own accompaniment. Besides, the piano part we all know so well is, in my opinion, stylistically very un-Baroque, and I'd really be surprised if Eccles wrote it.
