4-Hand pieces for starters

on: August 17, 2010, 05:37:28 PM

Hello,
my friend and I decided to play a 4-handed(1piano) song, we dont know how to start, though.
I heard Brahm's walzes are easy and good for starters but which speficially?
And any tips for us like how to study and whats important to play together ?
We are intermediate I think, our skill level is matched, we both learned turkish march, fantasie impromptu and fur elise in their complete versions.

Thanks.

Hi, a very beautiful piece is Military March Opus 51 No 1 by Schubert so you could try this. I am working on it right now (Primo) and when I am done I will play it with my teacher. It is not easy but I think that you are more advanced than me. Enjoy!
