Saint-Saëns "Danse macabre" for two pianos, op.40 

Saint Saens is one of the most underrated classical music composer.

After hearing him improvise on the piano Franz List declared that Camile Saint Saens was the world's greatest composer. Born 1835 he was a prodigy who was giving concerts by 10. He was a brilliant student equally interested in Science Philosophy and literature he also wrote poetry I guess. Let's see: he was a contemporary of Brahms, List, Chopin, Wagner, Scriabin, Satie, Debussy, and Ravel, as well as Gustov Mahler, etc. That he and everyone else was overshadowed was inevitable. It's truly a testimonial to his genius that we know his music as well as we do. His music is full of melodic unpredictability and often harmonic complexity yet always has highly individual personality from composition to composition .

My father used to play this around Halloween.

This is the very best version of the Danse I've ever heard. Better than the orchestra. The arrangement is superb, and these those geniuses playing make it even greater. I don't get tired of saying this: CONGRATULATIONS TO BOTH OF YOU. YOU ARE GREAT.

4:25 those chromatics in pianissimo has got to be the single most sexiest thing these ears ever eargasmed with! I mean that takes consummate skill and musicianship to perform with such perfection. Them 205 people that thumbed down this superlative performance.... let's talk.

Это исполнение я прослушиваю хотя бы раз в неделю в течение уже нескольких лет и не устаю слушать. Спасибо за ваш талант!

In terms of sound I guess I prefer full ensemble just because certain instruments sound better on certain parts by virtue of being that instrument,,, but dear god the musicianship and skill that go into this duet is unimaginable

The type of people who really deserve fame

Those pianos are bigger than my house

This must be exactly what Saint-Saens felt when writing this piece of music. It's so pure!

I couldn't stop smiling though the entire piece. Bravo to the two ladies for the wonderful display of your talent.

They sound like an orchestra!

As I watched this I literally cried because I didn’t know pianists could play with others. It’s so rare for a pianist to make music with someone, to listen to someone else and have someone else be listening to you. That this orchestral piece was arranged into duet form playable for piano makes me very happy.

i dance to this in the cemetery on Halloween night

I got chills just within the first minute of this. Beautifully done!

I was going to just listen while I did some coding, but this is as much fun to watch as it is to hear. Wow!

Never thought that this piece of music could be done on the piano. I am glad that I am sorely mistaken. Great job ladies!!!!!!! This is one of my favorite pieces of music. You have definitely done it justice. Thank you!!!!!!!

The more l hear these sisters perform, the more l am in awe of them. Their fabulous talent is a wonder and gift to us all. Thank you Anastasia and Liubov.

Трудно представить себе количество лет обучения и количество часов репетиций, необходимых для достижения такого совершенства в синхронизации. Поздравляем и благодарим вас за это прекрасное шоу! It is hard to imagine the number of years of learning and the number of hours of repetition to achieve such perfection in synchronization. Congratulations, and thank you for this beautiful show !

An orchestra is impressive but this is crazily great. I hope to be able to play like you at some point.

The ending is just amazing. The way they're perfectly in sync is something else

I am salivating

It was hard to tell there was more than one player. Truly impeccable timing and rhythm.

I can't help but feel so full of passionate anger when listening to this

I love the original better, but this is one of the best renditions of this song I have ever heard. Brilliantly played and with so much emotion! I love it!(:

When Russians play classical music, you want to listen !!! Great duet, I enjoyed very much. Thank you for uploading for the rest of us to enjoy !!!

Beautiful music, beautiful ladies, beautiful grand pianos, beautiful acoustics, beautiful, beautiful, glorious, brilliant and beautiful!!!

Beautiful. Though I must say, I've never seen two concert grands in mating position before. Hopefully we'll soon have a healthy little baby grand :-)

This is the first time Ive heard dual grand pianos play a song I know and love. Superb

one of the best Danse Macabre I ever listen to

how skillful and beautiful

Superbe danse intemporelle ! Magnifique interprétation ! 👍😊😊😊😊😊

One of my favorite composers. Great duet. Pianos are wonderful. Such a range of emotions, all controlled by the artist.

Who else agrees that the piano is the best instrument?

Genius arrangement! You wouldn't be able to fit Danse on just one piano...

I wish I had seen this live...I cant sum up my emotions hearing this piece in words, it is so unworldly.

I came here because I can't play this in Magic Piano app

Stunned and speechless...my new favorite version of a favorite classical piece. My humble thanks.

woow wat een mooie performence een prachtig nummer mooi gebracht en ik heb enkel op de piano's gelet

It's about the 1000st time i'm listening to this, and it's still one of my most beloved songs in what is probably my favorite version. Thanks!!

Un spectacle sans pareil !

Анастасия и Любовь, это чудесно! Замечательное исполнение фантастически красивой музыки. Фортепианное переложение, кажется, даже сильнее оркестровой пьесы. Спасибо, спасибо!

The perfect synchronization ... Congratulations to both sisters ...

From America north US xxxx beyond most praise to duo

That was AWESOME!!!!!!!! Freaking loved it!!

It's entirely fitting that I listened to this, The Dance of Death, at midnight on 31 October 2019.

love this song and the pianos really emphasize a new part of the piece for me

i can almost see them as little kid-sisters practicing piano together, and now playing together like this. well done!

One of the finest Masterpieces.

10 years later and i keep coming back for this vidéo 😁 amazing !

FANTASTIC!!! extremely talented sisters!!!!

i am not worthy of listening to such perfection

Very playful. This is such good viewing as well as listening.

Saint Saens was a genius and distant relative - good job uncle Cami.

I've always dreamed of doing a duet on a piano with someone, and as a french pianist of 17 years old whose favorite piece is La danse macabre, I literaly cried while listening to your arrangement.. It really is a hidden gem, and the best version I've ever found for piano, thank you so much for playing this ❤️

interprétation magistrale des deux soeurs Gromoglasova ! bravo et merci pour la musique française....

Amazing women, amazing performance, amazing piece, amazing grand pianos, amazing acoustics, amazing room, amazing...

This piece never tires. Emotion captured perfectly. A great deal of thanks to you both.

Beautiful ! ! !

Imagine the piano tuner. My tuning professor, Clayton Harmon, got the job of tuning for Feranti and Teischer. He took me with him. He first tuned one piano, then I played the notes for the other. After, at the concert, they shook bothhis hands, said they couldcount on one hand how many times, in twenty-five years, the pianos were so perfect that the tuner didn’t have to tune at all, during the intermission. Clayton Harmon. ‘Just remember, Harmonize your piano,’

Все-таки русская школа демонстративно показывает высокий класс. Это великолепно. Спасибо вам, девченки. Вы великолепны.

Exceptional performance ~ thanks so much!

Beautiful, great job you two. I love it!!

Wonderful - simply wonderful!

I now feel that I need a piano; and should have one...

This spellbing and stupendous performance has become my favorite by two sisters.

Such a wonderful and breathtaking performance! 🎵

awesome collaboration … thanks for sharing!

Absolutely fantastic.

Thank you for this. Many years ago I found a 78-rpm recording of this (two piano arrangement) how ever could not listen as the disk had a crack and a large chunk missing. I was not able to track down a copy and then life caught up with me.

Это красота! Очень здорово сыграно, с душой! Доставили огромное удовольствие!! Спасибо!

Absolutely fantastic!

Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant and gifted performance! You both are very blessed with talent. Thank you and bravo!

Brilliantly played. Love the sound of pianos. 🤗🤗🤗

All-Righty then - That was stellar.

One of the most incredible things I have ever seen.

6:11 It gives me goose bumps. What a perfect performance!

I became intoxicated with the grandeur of this performance! Bravo!

What a powerful and inspiring performance and interpretation of this piece!

Amazing performance!

I Can believe what Camille was thinking when he wrote the song!

Amazing performance! Wow!

They are magnificent on the piano 🎹. Would love to see them in concert ☺️
