Some notes on the program for the evening: Dedicated to the composer’s niece, Summer Dreams by Amy Beach is a suite of six pieces for piano four hands featuring poetic quotations at the head of each piece.

The famous Mozart sonata K. 545 in C major arranged for two pianos by Grieg is something to tickle the fancy of transcription-fanciers. When Grieg added an accompaniment for a second piano to Mozart’s keyboard sonata, the resulting composition was super fun and is full of surprises.

Ligetti’s 5 pieces for four hands presents the composer’s crucial encounter with American Minimalism, as well as with Nancarrow’s player-piano studies.

Piazzola’s Libertango and Verano Poteño are break from the classic tango genre. The music of the two arrangements is masterful, evocative and the heat and passion carried through it breathe life into the dance.
