So I searched and found Ferrante & Teicher on Amazon music today and started listening. They are billed as the Grand Twins of the Twin Grands; although they are not related they look identical. I saw them in concert in the late 1980s as I had to attend a certain number of concerts a month, write a review and provide the program as part of my band grade in high school. I really enjoy these guys as the styles of music they play are eclectic. __________________________ More blessed than I deserve. http://davesphotography7055.zenfolio.com/f238091154 | ||

Here is an article about them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrante_%26_Teicher I saw them many years ago - while performing a piece, they could swap melody and harmony in mid-stride and you'd be hard to tell the switch had happened. | |||

I think a Ferrante and Teicher album was the very first one I ever bought. Many's the night I fell asleep to them with the headphones on. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

I haven’t heard their names in a long time. I used to listen to them a lot. I'm sorry if I hurt you feelings when I called you stupid - I thought you already knew - Unknown ................................... When you have no future, you live in the past. " Sycamore Row" by John Grisham | |||

Heard them in concert ages ago. Darius Milhaud’s “Scaramouche” is the piece I remember, very showy for two pianos. _________________________ “Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern.

I haven't thought about them for years. I have several of their albums and enjoyed their music. I'll have to dig out those albums and give them a listen. _____________________________ "The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by those who vote for a living."
