Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart ： Divertimento No.4 (piano duet arr.) K.Anh.229/439b

This piano duet is appealing for its bright, approachable sound in B-flat major and its chamber-music character. Across its several movements, songlike melodies and dialogue passed between the parts emerge within light, agile motion, inviting listeners to enjoy the changing character of each section. A highlight is found not only in the brilliance created by the two players’ combined sound, but also in the delicate movement of the accompanying part. In performance, the melody should be brought clearly to the foreground while the players remain aware of their respective roles rather than equalizing the dynamics too much. Sharing the flow of the beat and the breathing of each phrase allows the music’s lightness and elegance to emerge naturally.
