Sergei Rachmaninov ： Three Pieces for six hands

Rachmaninov’s Three Pieces for Six Hands offers rich sonorities created by three performers at one piano, together with the lyrical expression characteristic of the Romantic style. Comprising three short pieces, it draws the listener in through varied moods, full harmonies, and flowing melodies. Performers should remain aware of each part’s role and clearly distinguish melody from accompaniment. Careful balancing of dynamics, coordinated pedaling, and unified breathing bring out the brilliance and sense of ensemble unique to six-hand playing.
