Works for Piano four-hands Volume II-Aucun autre grand compositeur n?a ?crit autant d??uvres pour piano ? quatre mains que Franz Schubert ? 54 ?uvres en tout (dont 32 avec num?ro d?opus): des fantaisies des danses des marches des variations rondos sonates etc. Jouer de la musique ensemble souvent dans un cadre convivial faisait partie int?grante de la vie au sein du cercle d?amis de Schubert. Quel plaisir de travailler ces morceaux!

Le volume II contient 26 morceaux en tout dont 19 sont rassembl?s dans quatre opus de trois quatre et six morceauxs?par?s: Trois Marches militaires Quatre L?ndler ainsi que six Grandes Marches et Trios et autant de Polonaises. Ces ?uvres datent des ann?es 1818 ? 1826. La pi?ce la plus connue de ce volume est sans doute la sonate en Ut majeur D 812 ?galement connue sous le titre de Grand Duo et compos?e en 1824. Cependant sans vouloir rel?guer les autres ?uvres au second plan les sept marches sont elles aussi des ?uvres somptueuses.

Sometimes the men (Bill Chris) take the lead; sometimes the women (Murphy Janet) take the lead. With three keys to choose from you can also find a harmony part to suit yourvoice.Along the way we offer some helpful hints such as 'What key do I sing in?' 'How do I find my harmony part?' and 'How can I get a good blend?' At the very end Murphy and Bill break out their banjos for a rousing quartetversion of 'Over in the Gloryland.'
