2 Exemplare zur Auffuhrung notig. Par ZIMMERMANN BERND ALOIS. In January 1964 Bernd Alois Zimmermann interrupted the completion of his opera Die Soldaten [The Soldiers] in order to rearrange his orchestral work Dialoge for two pianos. Monologe resulting therefrom takes up the original material but develops it towards a different direction: Zimmermann‘s collage technique based on quotations extends over the entire musical setting so that it is not only Mozart (Piano Concerto in C major KV 467) who has his say but Beethoven, Messiaen and Bach as well. 'Monologe – this is a piece for two pianists; real monologues of these pianists who, though simultaneously,[…] do not always play at the same 'time'; […] losing themselves in their 'own thoughts', as it were.' (Zimmermann)/ Répertoire / 2 Pianos

Le Concerto slave de Borys Lyatoshynsky est considéré comme l'un des plus grands chefs-d'oeuvre de la musique classique ukrainienne.La singularité de cette oeuvre est d'être entièrement fondée sur les mélodies ou motifs populaires de l'Ukraine et de ses pays voisins. Écrite dans la tradition des grands concertos du XIXe et de la première partie du XXe siècle, cette oeuvre est très personnelle et parfaitement fidèle au style et à l'esthétique du compositeur en raison de ses trouvailles et audaces.La facture pianistique, très virtuose, malgré une difficulté parfois féroce, ne manque pas d'intimité, de richesse et de raffinement. Le dialogue enchevêtré entre le soliste et l'orchestre dans un discours dramaturgique global crée un véritable tableau symphonique. / Piano / Billaudot

piano reduction for 2 pianos. Par SHCHEDRIN RODION. Shchedrin, son of a composer and music teacher, underwent a thorough musical training in Moscow. His versatility and dazzling competence across a wide variety of musical genres are surely a result of his studies. The composer is also an exceptional pianist and frequently performs his own piano works (concertos, sonatas, 24 preludes and fugues, etc.) on the concert platform. While employing a variety of modern compositional techniques he has, nevertheless, succeeded in uniting traditional and contemporary forms. His work is suffused with his love for Russian folkmusic, poetry and literature, yet it is not just relevant in his homeland but speaks to a wider audience. His more recent works too, are characterized by this fusion of a deep Slavic sensitivity with outstanding virtuosity./ Répertoire / 2 Pianos

The two-Piano version that appears here was transcribed by the composer himself.Suitablefor intermediate and advanced pianists this collection features four additional pieces: Piano Sonata in E-flat minor; Prélude élégiaque; Variations Interlude and Finale on a theme by Jean Philippe Rameau; and Laplainte au loin du faun. Edited and introduced by renowned pianist Daniel Glover these works were reproduced from authoritative sources.

Les deux pianos introduisent le motif bass un après l'autre. Chaque nouvelle entrée apporte une augmentation de tempo. Seulement quand ils jouent ensemble, cependant, est le véritable ' Vivace unleashed. Dès lors, c'est seulement dans les sections ' largamente ' et une section du milieu lyrique (cantabile) que la basse de course figure pauses pendant un certain temps. Le motif tisse son chemin à travers le cours de la ' Toccata ' comme un ' perpetuum mobile ', ce qui porte la superposition de plus en plus complexe à la structure du mouvement. Le compositeur letton Peteris Vasks a lui-même décrit comme ' un musicien de la périphérie ' en raison de ses origines géographiques et culturelles. Sa musique pleine de rigueur émotionnelle continue de lui apporter vers le centre de la composition contemporaine, comme est évident dans ses oeuvres de chambre instrumentale. / 2 Pianos

In between, the second movement presents a lyrical contrast with its singing melody and lush harmonies. Together with the second piano accompaniment, students will experience the thrill and fun of performing a concerto. / 2 Pianos, 4 Mains
