I agree that transposing Bartok piano concertos might be a bit tough.
Transposing fairly complicated choral or art song accompaniments I believe
are pretty standard. The art of accompaniment is not that of a solo artist -

There is a fairly 'new' approach to elbow pain from epicondylitis (tennis

The Flexbar did not work for me- but a lot of intelligent thought and

like to give it a try, I would be more than happy to give away my Flexbars- one
