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

Amazing Grace - piano duet - who are the pianists?
on: January 25, 2015, 03:26:18 AM
I posted on youtube a piano duet of Amazing Grace that I found in my computer, saved in July, 2007.  I have no idea where I got it.  The pianists are playing on a stage in a concert hall, and the older one is wearing tails, all of which makes me suspect that they are classical pianists.  There are a few words of a foreign language at the beginning, but I cannot identify it.  Does anyone know who these guys are???  The post is at
and is called Amazing Grace - Piano Duet - Who are the Pianists?

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

So glad I finally found out, thanks to an answer from Mark Sockwell on youtube.  The tall one is Adam Gyorgy and the bald one is Steven Spooner, pianist and Assistant Professor of Music at the University of Kansas.

I had a lesson from Dr. Spooner before.
