Late-intermediate students will love to play this duet in a fast 4/4 meter that flies back and forth over the keys, first in D minor and then in D major. The melody and the accompaniment alternate between primo and secondo, and phrases featuring staccato and legato are frequently traded back and forth. Some syncopation and accents add rhythmic variety. This duet is sure to be a favorite with students and audiences alike!
