For two pianos. Composed by Enjott Schneider. This edition: performance score. Downloadable, Performance score. Duration 6 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q18573. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q18573).In time for the 200th birthday of Richard Wagner, Enjott Schneider has presented his 'Minuten-Tristan' in a version for two pianos. Originally composed for a dozen pianos, 'Minuten-Tristan' presents the highlights of Wagner's monumental work in a daring tour de force of no more than five minutes, bringing amazing things to light: The Tristan chord shows its true harmonic calling in the tango, while the opening bars lead to a lively ragtime and the tragic Liebestod occurs in bright three-four time. This piece is a witty parodistic tribute, full of humour and affectionate mockery, to the famous composer.
This paraphrase on Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde was composed and spectacularly performed for the re-opening of the Prinzregententheater in Munich on 8 November 1996. In a mere 6 minutes, the Wagnerian epic is presented in a colourful bouquet of tango, ragtime and waltz in a humorous but provocative form. Enjott Schneider.
