This is such a beautiful piece of music!

I know this piece is arranged for violin/piano and Cello/piano and maybe Harp/cello Harp/violin too?

Does anyone know where I could purchase ANY arrangement?? I need a piano or harp accompaniment part urgently!!!

Thank you so much?

Ok, I know this doesn't answer your original question at all, but for an interesting interpretation, check out:

Michelle Kwan skating to Song of The Black Swan (interspersed with the last movement of the Dumky Trio). It earned her her then-4th world gold medal. Personally.... I find watching movement to music possibly even more interesting and helpful to interpretation than just watching other instrumentalists.

Oh, also online I saw it's included in a book featuring cello and piano:

Good luck!
