Arranged For 2 Pianos By Richard Rijnvos (2017). Par STRAVINSKY IGOR. Igor Strawinskys Meisterwerk Symphony in Three Movements gehört seit seiner Uraufführung zum orchestralen Standardrepertoire der klassischen Moderne. Die Fassung für zwei Klaviere von Richard Rijnvos ist weder eine Reduktion noch ein Arrangement. Vielmehr ist sie eine genaue Transkription der Orchesterpartitur, in der alle Stimmen und melodischen Linien bewahrt werden. / Niveau : 5 / Répertoire / 2 Pianos

Cole Porters only attempt at a 'serious? composition came with the ballet score Within the Quota, when Darius Milhaud suggested Porter as a composer to pair with his La Création du monde. Both pieces were rapturously received by the Parisian press at the October 1923 premiere at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées. Cole Porter later believed the score to be lost. In 1970 the score was discovered at Yale, from which William Bolcom and Richard Rodney Bennett created this two-piano version. The ballet is about an immigrant to New York who encounters a seductive heiress, a tap-dancer, a flapper, a cowboy, and a movie star beauty. Two copies needed for performance. / 2 Pianos
