The brothers Markus & Pascal Kaufmann will perform works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart that have been given a new sound for two grand pianos. For example, the Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg added a second piano to Mozart's little C major sonata. However, this was not to give the music more power and accents, but to enhance Mozart's ingenuity with delicate accompaniment figures and additional melodies. Mozart in Norwegian - an extremely rare discovery!
