Playing four-hands on the piano started to gain ground in the mid-18th century, at about the time when the hammer-action fortepiano appeared on the scene. Certain composers soon realized the possibilities inherent in the greater range of the new instrument. Almost all the great classical and romantic masters composed pieces for piano duet. This volume contains easy four-hand duets by the masters of the 18th and 19th centuries, from Mozart to Grieg. These pieces are ideal for concert performance by both beginners and andvanced players.
