You're wasting your time: it's a synthetically created soundscape which is not realisable in pianistic terms for it is physically impossible:

Edit:





Many thanks for the heads-up, Andrew, but on this occasion I'm going to have to stick to my guns. The clip you provided was very illuminating in that regard, so thanks for that, too.





When you go, for example, to between 0:50 and 1:25 in 'my' version, and you listen carefully, you will note (RH) that though the hand is fully occupied with an octave plus broken chord filler patterns, a third line rises from below and crosses the RH position, extending upwards. That's physically not possible -- the LH can't help out, it's too busy already -- and when you compare it with your clip, the entire moment doesn't exist -- for obvious reasons. Likewise, the gruelling speed of the original is mechanically inflexible and rigorously consistent, without the minute fluctuations humanly necessary to accommodate the gestures asked for. Set a metronome to it and you'll see for yourself. Having performed a good few Godowskys in my day, I'm not easily phased by such physical high jinx, but I also know when the boundary of the pysically possible is being exceeded.





Interestingly, of all the original versions of this put out by its apparent auteur -- Oster Project, whose very business is the engineering and production of soundscapes -- you will never find one of theirs showing a human pianist executing it in real time. (Check it, I have...) There is a reason for that, and your 'real' pianist's rendition illustrates the point very nicely...





What you hear and see in your clip, and what you hear and cannot see in 'mine' will not and cannot ever coincide which, with your clip's help, anyone can now hear that they don't. And there, as the Bard put it rather neatly, is the rub... :-)

Nemesis, you're completely wrong. Here's the link to it right here.

Ask the guy who plays it in that vid. He has connections through FlashFlashRevolution (A site which i visit). He'll give it to you. If not, ask him where you can get it.
