My friend and I decided to do Rachmaninov's Faintaisie Tableaux I. Barcarolle for two pianos.
So far he just ordered the music for us which is great. Before we get the music, is there any thing we need to know before playing this? Anything we can do to keep together? Any tips? Whats your review on this piece?

And also,
Is it possible for anyone to upload a recording for this?


Thanks,
Kaiwin

I was going to play this with a friend of mine this last year, never got around to actually putting it together, but I worked on the first part.  Wow, this piece is really tough.  It is great though.  I have Ashkenazy and Previn playing this, it is wonderful.  I'd post a recording here, but I don't want to get in trouble.  If you give me your email, I could email it to you in mp3.
