The Meeks Duo - Piano 4 hands | March (Piano Duet) from The Nutcracker by Tchaikovsky @TheMeeksDuo | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 7 hours ago
March from the Nutcracker Suite by Pyotr Tchaikovsky, arranged for piano 4-hands by Scott Meek, and performed by The Meeks Duo. Live concert for the Whistler Chamber Music Society, November 2022.
Score available for purchase: themeeksduo.com/sheet-music-store/p/march-from-the-nutcracker-suite
Full Nutcracker Suite (8 movements,) score: themeeksduo.com/sheet-music-store/p/nutcrackersuite
A few years ago, we learned and performed the Eduard Langer (1835-1905) 4-hand transcription, which seemed to be the only existing faithful adaptation of Tchaikovsky's original orchestral version. However, the writing in Langer's version was often frustratingly difficult and inconsistent, so I decided to commit to arranging the whole suite in a more pianistic way, resulting in a version that requires less practice while retaining the full orchestral sound!
