I performed the entire set of "Souvenirs" a number of years ago. I remember thinking, when I first started rehearsing this movement, how awkward it was. What was Barber up to??? Then I realized that Barber was forcing the two pianists to choreograph their hand movements in order to play the notes as asked: the two duet partners must cross hands over and under each other and in a little "dance" at the keyboard -- a true _pas de deux_. Yet another brilliant example of Barber's genius.

This is what four-hand playing is all about. Perfect technique, perfect musicality, perfect harmony. Never have I heard a duo like this!

So emotional, not only this beautiful piece,but the feelings of the players transpire. Why I am almost crying?

I didn't know that this was originally a duet piece :O It seems easier to reach the chords to keep up with the timing with duets Great performance. Very well done

People who post rude comments are only people who have little time on their hands. They sit here, posting their hollow feelings about something they seldom know farther then a wikipedia page. I don't know much about the composer, where this music came from, how it was made. What I do know is this; This music is beautiful. It touches me to the heart and it makes me tear up as this piece touches feelings within myself. Music like classical piano has its place. You trolls won't take it from there.

holy crap....that was the most sexy piano duo video i've EVER seen...I was just looking this song up because i'm learning it and wanted to see how they made the dual voices sound like two separate hands....well in this video they WERE two different hands...that doesn't help me to much, but wow very nice performance!

Superb balance of the voicings in the counterpoint melodies.

@efraingonzalez 17 лет назад

Wonderful! we like very much your music, and your arrengements are amazing!

@Kida001 12 лет назад

I never get tired of hearing this. These two play with such emotion. I am captivated.

@lvb1770 17 лет назад

Absolute Bliss! You both have very big futures to look forward to. I became a huge fan in the first few seconds of hearing you play! You are true artists!

@andersonroe 16 лет назад

We added the LP "rumble and ticks" to give this video a timeworn aura. Barber wanted the piece to evoke a sense of nostalgia, and we wanted our video to do the same.

@rasslinroe 17 лет назад

barberrific. (pretty sure that if you didn't know better you'd think i was some anderson/roe stalker, what with all the comments ... but since you do know better, you can just call me your #1 fan?)

@pianolounge 16 лет назад

You can always take a look at it first to see if you think It was played well enough to appear, but generally any extra traffic is good traffic for BOTH of us:) Plus I think I made my video pretty classy, i was wearing a suit ^_^

Now that's a feeling~

@apollonmusagete 15 лет назад

Exquisite music and performance--but the amorous histrionics have to go! ;-)

@lvb1770 17 лет назад

cykniz, So they play it faster than you do, so what. By the way, it is not a song, it is a composition. In bars 30-32 Barber marks espr. on the last two eighth notes. I am sorry to be blunt but you should not be trying to give advice on how to play this composition to Anderson & Roe.

@lvb1770 17 лет назад

Another note, on the third page at bar 25 Barber specifically instructs with the words, "moving slightly forward." Maybe you are speaking of the video production itself moving in slow motion?

@lvb1770 16 лет назад

eco001, Ah, you have a point. Mastering the audio properly is critical. The microphones, their placement and preamps on the mixer are so important to capture dynamics. Then the issue of what software to use and how to use it comes up when compressing video. I like Sorenson squeeze but it depends on your budget. Yes, You Tube to me, is one big master class. I met Scriabin's Great Grandson on You Tube! Peace.

@lvb1770 16 лет назад

eco001, You would like to hear a tad more distinction between the two voices in measures 24-28? Come on DUDE! It's 4 frickin bars and who are you to give them advice? Please shut up!

@bebe0x 11 лет назад

I played this song when I was younger and never realized it was meant to be split up as a duet..

@lvb1770 17 лет назад

1st off the solo version is not easy! 2nd, In 1952 Barber himself writes, "I was composing some duets for ONE piano to play with a friend. He did compose a single piano version later. It is a duet, on one piano, That's Anderson and Roe, Bro!

There are many ways to make love, you invented another one.

@lvb1770 17 лет назад

cykniz, I totally disagree with you on this. I feel the emotion completely! It is clear from the chemistry they share. These two pianists are breaking down barriers with what they are doing. As far as I am concerned this is utter perfection!

@sandracidmast7629 3 года назад

So emotional, not only this beautiful piece,but the feelings of extasy the players transpire. Why I am almost crying?

@pequadcob2009 15 лет назад

I'm sorry but that is quite rude! You need to listen to their version of Libertango! It's amazing! Why be so harsh?

@eco001 16 лет назад

My goodness, relax my friend. Setting aside for the moment the peculiarity of your heated response given the absence of knowing if A&R would feel at all put out by what I wrote - If one doesn't want honest criticism, why post a performance on an open forum? The poor audio quality of the medium precludes serious listening. So unless one is merely seeking validation to prop up a fragile ego, I should think a good tip here and there would be welcome. RU-vid can be one big Master class, no? eCo

@lvb1770 16 лет назад

UrascMuzicaDeDoiBani, What does cand mean? This is a good as it gets!

@eco001 16 лет назад

Ah, nice creative touch. Through me for a minute there, tho - especially since the video was so stylized. The performance is quite nice, thanks for sharing. I would like to hear a tad more distinction between the two voices in measures 24-28 and later, but that might just be a limitation of the audio recording and/or compression. Best, eCo

@pianodesu 15 лет назад

Amazing playing! You should use professional lighting, It will look much better.

@myopus77 14 лет назад

OMG i have never seen duo piano be so sexy and tell such a story. I hate to sound like Paris Hilton...but "thats hot!"

@NOSEhow2LIV 14 лет назад

Beautiful production. I particularly enjoy the vintage piano sound so much in harmony with the wack-and-blight film. Nostalgia plus!

@reinhardpan 13 лет назад

@Naraflames love you for your words, my feelings are just the same.

sheet please?

@eco001 16 лет назад

Why does the audio sound like it's coming off an LP record? The rumble and ticks are particularly noticeable at the start and makes me wonder who the real performers are.

@morninglorya918 15 лет назад

ahaha. SO funny. good job- do you want a cookie? Congratulations on playing a fairly basic piece. "oh my goodness! I can successfully play it" ...we all know that the piece was written for one piano, but we can still appreciate a different interpretation and approach. btw, I've played this piece as well. Does that mean I feel the need to brag about my piano abilities on someone else's video? NOT REALLY.
