Leroy Anderson's "Sleigh Ride" is a holiday favorite, and this setting for advanced piano duet gives it a fresh twist. It begins with Anderson's jingling melody and some musical banter between the primo and secondo players, and then it launches into a series of variations that take the listener on a journey through a variety of styles, from gently swirling, impressionistic arpeggios to a triumphant coda with brilliant, virtuosic passagework. Audiences will enjoy a number of other musical surprises along the way.
This grandiose duet for late-intermediate level pianists is sure to be a show-stopper! The dramatic opening in D minor and 4/4 meter sets the stage for a key change to D major. Both primo and second parts feature octaves, full chords, and sixteenth-note passages. The final section returns to D minor with a change of meter to 2/4 and a faster tempo. Glissandi in both parts bring the piece to an exhilarating close.
Famous tunes by Leroy Anderson, Felix Arndt, Zez Confrey, Paul Desmond, and Scott Joplin are featured in these charming piano duets. The accessible arrangements are perfect for intermediate to late intermediate pianists and can be used for recitals, ensemble practice, or just for fun.

Late-intermediate students will love to play this duet in a fast 4/4 meter that flies back and forth over the keys, first in D minor and then in D major. The melody and the accompaniment alternate between primo and secondo, and phrases featuring staccato and legato are frequently traded back and forth. Some syncopation and accents add rhythmic variety. This duet is sure to be a favorite with students and audiences alike!

This piano-duet rendition of the "Ukrainian Bell Carol" is a sure-fire audience winner. Written as free variations, the traditional melody undergoes several transformations---from a lighthearted polka to a brilliantly intense, virtuosic finale. Along the way, the players navigate crossed-hand playing, scales, trills, arpeggios, octave passages, exciting rhythms, and changes of meter. Audiences will enjoy a number of other musical surprises.
This fun piano duet arrangement of the famous "Inspector Gadget Theme" is entertaining and full of wit. The four-hand arrangement captures the ragtime character of the original theme, before breaking free into arrangers' imaginations. Dramatic pauses, abrupt changes of tempo, and daredevil passagework up and down the keyboard make this an exciting showpiece, perfect for a recital encore.
