two pianos
Double keyboard setup
Two pianos refers to a musical composition or performance arrangement featuring two separate piano instruments, each with its own player.
The term distinguishes this setup from piano four-hands, where two pianists share one keyboard.
The concerto was written for two pianos and orchestra.
Much of the repertoire involves virtuosic interplay between equally matched performers.
