The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

Are you referring to Andrew Lloyd or his father William Lloyd? (rhetorical question, of course)...

At first I thought the OP was refering to Weber.

No I don't think the score is available publicly. The music, being mostly unheard of would make the score for 2 pianos even more rare.

Assuming the OP does mean Weber, I have never seen a 2 piano arrangement.

Several composers have messed with this piece however. Brahms turns it upside down, Phillip adds some octaves and Godowsky along with Michalowski made the infernal thing even more difficult than the original.

One hope it will now be left alone.
