English comments:
Granados wrote only two works for piano 4 hands: En la aldea (In the Village), and Dos marchas militares (Two Military Marches). His only work scored for 2 pianos is not an original work, but is a transcription of "Triana" by Isaac Albeniz, originally written for piano solo. Granados performed numerous concerts of works for 2 pianos and piano 4 hands with Edouard Risler and with Joaquin Malats. Thus, it is somewhat surprising that he did not compose more works for either of these two formats. This edition is the first publication of En la aldea. The only previous edition of Dos marchas militares is the one published by Union Musical Espanola, Madrid. Editorial Boileau published Granados' transcription for 2 pianos of "Triana" for the first time in 1990.

Comentarios del Espanol:
Granados escribio solamente dos obras para piano a 4 manos: En la aldea y Dos marchas militares. Su unica partitura para 2 pianos no es una obra original sino la transcripcion de "Triana" de Isaac Albeniz para piano solo. Granados interpretaba dentro de su repertorio de conciertos un considerable numero de obras para 2 pianos y para piano a 4 manos, generalmente unas veces con Edouard Risler y otras con Joaquin Malats. Asi, pues, sorprende que no compusiera mas obras para estos generos. Esta edicion es la primera de En la aldea. La unica edicion previa de Dos marchas militares es la publicada en Madrid por Union Musical Espanola. Editorial Boileau publico por primera vez en 1990 la transcripcion para 2 pianos de "Triana" que Granados preparo de la obra original para piano solo de Isaac Albeniz.
