Engaging Duets of the Classical Period Featuring 5-Finger Hand Positions
This collection features 5 beautifully composed pieces for 2 players at one piano. They can be enjoyed by early intermediate-to-late intermediate level players. Composers Anton Diabelli and Carl Czerny have constructed these works around 5-finger hand positions for the primo part, making these works accessible to students in the early phases of their study. Melodically tuneful and harmonically engaging, these works are fun to play!
George Litterst has provided historical commentary, and Paul Sheftel has recorded left- and right-hand parts for both primo and secondo. In the absence of your piano partner, you can practice with Paul Sheftel at any tempo!
