A Merry Sleigh Ride , Op 193 | MIDI | salon duet Xmas2019 CD2 | |
Original title: Eine heitere Schlittenpartie. Described as a piano duet with various children's instruments (toy trumpet, bells and whip). A real family piece! The story tells of a sleighride; they meet the genial host, who invites them to a little dance. There is a waltz and a polka; then the ride back, and finally the merry-makers go their separate ways. It could be parents playing the piano duet, and their children playing the toy instruments, but I like to imagine the teenagers playing the piano while the younger children play the toys while their proud parents and guests look on. |
