A unique challenge for intermediate players!
This book features some of Orff's more popular and colorful compositions arranged for piano duet (one piano, four hands). The arrangements are easy enough for the intermediate player to handle, but the challenge lies in the rhythm of the duets. Each duet explores more uncommon time signatures and various meter changes that require concentration and strict time, allowing the players to flex their ensemble playing muscle. The arrangements avoid the sometimes extremely thick textures of Orff's music while remaining loyal to the melody and/or colorful harmonies of the orchestral score. Fun to play and unique in comparison to much of the standard piano duet repertoire out there today, this book was a breath of fresh air to explore.
