Extra Information
|
*Pasticcio arrangement of two works, possibly inspired by Edwin Hughes' collection above.
- Sonata for 2 Pianos in D major, K.448/375a of 1781
- Fugue in C minor, K.426 of 1783.
Descarries' arrangement transposed the Fugue to D minor, which makes it into a more plausible item to be performed in one sitting than Hughes' 1926 collection - which simply contains two works that Mozart composed for two pianos.
