piano duo

Two-player keyboard act

A piano duo is two pianists performing together.

The term covers two distinct arrangements: four hands at one piano, where both players share a single instrument, or two pianos, where each has their own.

The piano duo performed Mozart's Sonata for Two Pianos.

Context usually clarifies which configuration is meant.
