Published by Heather Cattanach (A0.507306). Four players at one piano! Just as Draco the Dragon slithers across the dome of the sky, four players slink over the whole keyboard, creating continuous movement.

Published by Heather Cattanach (A0.507262). Caelum, the Sculptor, an Intermediate Piano Duet uses weights on the black keys to create sympathetic vibrations of the strings. As a sculptor uses the chisel to chip away the stone or wood from a block thus changing the shape of the material, so the players in removing and replacing the blocks from the keys alter the sound of the music. As indicated, sometimes listen (for a bar) to the sympathetic vibrations. Sometimes remove weights to hear the change in sound. Both duet players need to carefully lift and replace the blocks silently.
