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.

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.
