Instrumentation:
Piano, four hands
Duration: ~3 minutes 
Year of Composition:
  2010
Program Note: This piece is a transcription of a movment from Tapas, a suite of short pieces I wrote a few years earlier for violin and viola duo.  It struck me that one of the middle movements of the work, Capriccio Pizzicato, would work particularly well for four-hand piano.  This is an ensemble that has always appealed to me for personal reasons.  I was a piano major as an undergraduate, and some of my fondest memories are of reading through four-hand piano works with other members of the piano studio at SUNY Stony Brook.
