Unknown pieces for 4 hands?

[franz_]

Anyone has nice unknown pieces for 4 hands? Preferably not too long.
Thanks

Debussy's Six Epigraphs Antiques are lovely and less well known than some other four hands music.

I recommend Philip Cashian's Star Machine, which is a concerto for piano four hands and flexible ensemble. However, 4 of the 12 very short movements are for piano four hands on its own and the composer says you can play any or all of the movements in any order. It's written for amateurs so easy to play but still in a modern style. Available from www.coma.org. If you're in London on 25 Oct or Maastricht on 5 Nov you'll get to hear me playing some of the movements! Wonderful, inventive piece.

what do you mean by unknown?
there is this piece called 'waltz from masquerade' by kachaturian, i think. although not 'unknown,' i think you can still try that one. it's 4 minutes long.

Thanks, I'll check it. How comes you play in Maastricht? You study there?
It's close to where i live actually.

I'm from London and it'll be my first time in Maastricht. It's for a conference on amateur contemporary music making, and CoMA, the group I play in, has been invited to play. Come if you want! https://www.comamaastricht.nl/ .

I know someone had mentioned Debussy, and I'm not sure if the piece i'm about to recommend is in the set that person mentioned, but one of my favorite pieces for 4 hands ever is Lindaraja.
