2 Pianos,4 Hands,Piano Duet - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1464123 By Richard Simm. By Bedrich Smetana. Arranged by Richard Simm. 19th Century,Classical,Folk,Multicultural,Romantic Period,World. Score. 9 pages. Richard Simm #1042836. Published by Richard Simm (A0.1464123). Smetana struggled hard for recognition in his life as a composer, but in his later years his major contribution to a Czech national style in music was acknowledged. Vltava is a marvellous orchestral depiction of the river that flows through Prague, reflecting the aspect of realism which was part of his romantic inspiration.This 2-piano arrangement by Richard Simm is pianistically advanced in order to retain as much as possible of the original's rich orchestral texture, but the focus is on the beautiful main theme of the work, concluding with Smetana's rather Wagnerian coda. Polished pianists will enjoy taking part in the powerful, surging flow of this descriptive work.

Published by Richard Simm (A0.800639). This awesome depiction of a boat on a vast ocean was originally scored, like the composer's Alborada del Gracioso, for solo piano, and is also fearsomely difficult. Ravel later orchestrated both works, and his amazing gifts in this field give us extremely valuable insight into his imaginative conception of this watery scenario. Richard Simm was inspired by the magnificent orchestration to build upon it by arranging it for two pianos instead of one - a combination which Ravel himself often enjoyed using.

This beautiful ancient melody is treated with great respect by Scottish bagpipers, who play it only on serious ceremonial occasions, and not for mere entertainment. It marks a terrible defeat at the Battle of Flodden, and the text describes the grief of those left at home to mourn. The Flowers in the title are the slain men, and the accompaniment in this 2-piano arrangement by Richard Simm retains the haunting character of distant bagpipe music. The Piano I part is easy, intended for relative beginners, while the second part is for teachers and more advanced pianists.

In this aria Don José declares his love for Carmen, but she belittles his passionate attempts to convince her of his feelings, saying that if he really loved her, he would take her away from her humble surroundings to a place where she could really be free.The arranger has added a short bridge passage between the opera's initial scenes of communal life centred around a cigarette factory and Don José's beautiful expression of his ill-fated love in Act II.

Piano or 2 pianos (4 hands) - difficult - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q17510 Prelude. Composed by Richard Wagner. The Virtuoso Piano Transcription Series. Downloadable. Op. 6. Duration 10 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q17510. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q17510). With the prelude to the Mastersingers we now publish the second of three Wagner transcriptions already made legendary by Gould's 1973 recording. Gould brought Wagner's 'brilliant counterpoint' to life with the help of recording technology, by superimposing a second, supplementary part over an initial recording. For live performances it is therefore preferable to have two pianists playing the piece on two pianos, rather than the piano solo version which is made possible with some cuts.Den glanzvollen Kontrapunkt Wagners realisierte Gould mit Hilfe der Aufnahmetechnik, indem er eine erste Aufnahme mit einem ergänzenden zweiten Teil überblendete. Für Aufführungen ist daher eine Ausführung an zwei Klavieren zu vier Händen einer mit Abstrichen möglichen Realisierung zu zwei Händen vorzuziehen.
