piano duets
Shared keyboard performances
Piano duets are pieces written for two pianists, either at one piano (four hands) or two pianos (four hands on separate instruments).
The genre ranges from teaching pieces for beginners to virtuosic concert works.
Playing duets requires close coordination—sharing a bench, negotiating hand crossings, matching dynamics: We sight-read piano duets on Sunday afternoons.
