Scaramouche for 2 pianos
on: August 19, 2005, 12:05:48 PM
Does anyone play this piece too? I think it's really cool, especially the 3rd movement!

I hope anyone wants to discuss this piece with me, because it has some difficult parts in it..

yes yes, it is a very famous 2 piano piece.  I read (painfully) the whole thing at some point. Fun piece.  Some hard rythms at parts.

Women and the Chopin Competition: Breaking Barriers in Classical Music

The piano, a sleek monument of polished wood and ivory keys, holds a curious, often paradoxical, position in music history, especially for women.
