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 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 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.

Written in 1979 after seeing an exhibition of Rothko's paintings in Cologne, O is one of Barry's earliest published works. Both piano parts are the same and the composer describes the work as an exploration of ornamentation (the bending of an existing melody) and an etude in co-ordination (the challenge of playing exactly together).

This impressive concert work is a frank dialogue between the players. The four movements are of contrasting character, but always in a conversational style. Jaffe was one of four finalists in the 1991 Friedheim competition. For colleges, conservatories, professionals. Difficult.

This work was inspired by Kyllonen's trip to Peru in 1984. In the second part (Adagio) there are reflections of the starry sky seen at the Andies 3000 metres above the sea level. In the closing part (Allegro assai) the source of inspiration was the fervent dance rhythm heard by an Indian player at the Machu Picchu.
