"Duende" for two Pianos

Featured Replies

A tango/fantasy, inspired by Gershwin, Poulenc, Messiaen,and others.

Very cool.

I'm a fan of Gershwin (and a bit of Messiaen); you use their ideas so well in this piece.

Here's how I broke it down:

0:36 is totally from Gershwin's Prelude 1 right?

0:58 is awesome, it feels like some offbeat stride or something crazy cool like that.

1:18 nice colour

1:26 sounds really Gershwiny, like Rhapsody in Blue.

1:37 very fun transition

1:43 nice use of stride

All that being said, Katrina, the ending does not do it for me after all those moments of wow. It sounds like you need only 2 hands playing the cadence and the other two 2 hands could do some flashy cadenza overtop landing on the tonic.

When do you think you'll put the real version of you playing it online?
