By Irving Berlin / arr. Don Heitler and Jim Lyke
Series: Keyboard Ensemble Series
Category: Piano Duo (2 Pianos, 4 Hands)

Level: Late Intermediate

With 2 performers at 2 pianos, the musical effect is orchestral and exuberant as this famous Irving Berlin gem marches through its key changes, contrasts, and playful jumps in melodic duties between the artists. Some filled-in octave work is called for and a wide use of each keyboard, but this arrangement is nevertheless accessible for late intermediate pianists. This would make a perfect performance encore piece.
