🇩🇪Franz Joseph Haydn ： Divertimento Teacher and Pupil for Piano Duet in F-Dur Hob.XVIIa:1

Among Haydn’s piano-duet works, this is an approachable and witty piece that, as its title suggests, evokes a dialogue between a teacher and a pupil. Within the bright, well-balanced sonority of F major, the two performers advance the music by passing melodies and phrases between one another. The changing character of each section and the shifts in their musical exchanges are particular points of interest. Performers should maintain the clear phrasing typical of the Classical style, coordinate dynamics and articulation, and listen closely to each other in order to create a natural musical conversation.
