Exceptional Challenge for Advanced Students
Bolcom's "Recuerdos" is a standout "Very Difficult" classical duet, perfect for advanced students preparing for NFMC festivals. The arrangement for 2 Pianos, 4 Hands provides an incredible opportunity to develop ensemble precision and advanced technique. Hal Leonard's scores generally feature clear engraving, which is crucial for tackling such complex 48-page works. A truly rewarding piece for dedicated high-level piano duo students.

Superb Duet, Not for Vocal Accompaniment
William Bolcom's "Recuerdos" is a brilliantly conceived and "Very Difficult" classical work for 2 Pianos, 4 Hands. As a collaborative pianist, it's important to note this is a standalone piano duet, not designed for vocal accompaniment. The intricate, rich texture serves the two pianos independently, without supporting a vocal line. While an outstanding concert piece for piano duos, it's unsuitable for a vocal coach seeking accompaniment material.

A Monumental (and Rewarding) Duet Project
As an adult learner, I'm always up for a challenge, and "Recuerdos" by William Bolcom certainly delivers! This "Very Difficult" classical piano duet (2 Pianos, 4 Hands) isn't something you'll sight-read over a weekend. However, for those passionate about pushing their skills with a partner, it promises immense satisfaction and a deep dive into complex, beautiful music. A fantastic long-term goal for an ambitious hobbyist.

Two copies included
This product has just arrived, so I can't review it as a musical piece. However, anyone else wishing to buy it might like to know that two copies of the music are included with the one item. The product description doesn't state this, and I bought two - rather a waste of money. Two-piano works should all state whether one or two copies are included, as some are, and some aren't. My two stars refer to the product description, not the music.

Clearer product description needed
Most of the two-piano works on Sheet Music Plus either state that two copies will need to be bought, or that two are included. This product said nothing about that, and I wrongly assumed that there was only one copy. So I bought two, at some expense. Guess what? Two copies ARE included with each purchase. So now I have four copies. PLEASE make sure the product descriptions for all two-piano works state exactly how many copies are included.
