Wir und die Zuhörer würden uns zwar immer noch der Musik und des Klavierspiels erfreuen, verzichten müßten wir aber auf den ultimativen Klavierklang und die außerordentliche Reichweite der Möglichkeiten, die nur ein Steinway bietet."

Richard And John CONTIGUGLIA, Duo Pianists - Biography The contiguglia Duo offers twopiano and piano, four-hand programs, Concertoswith orchestra and recordings on Gemini CD Classics, along with biography, http://www.duopianistscontiguglia.com/bio.htm
Extractions: R ichard and John Contiguglia are identical twins who have collaborated as a piano duo since they were five years old. Throughout their career critics have responded in superlatives to their unique musical partnership. Following the release of their historic recording of Beethoven's 9th Symphony, transcribed for two pianos by Franz Liszt, now a collector's item, critic Edward Tatnall Canby called the Contiguglias "the most profoundly musical pair of piano virtuosi of this century." Records and Recording proclaimed that "they have given the two-piano medium a whole new dimension. The Contiguglias stand apart in a lofty world of their own, unrivaled and supreme." Byron Belt, for Newhouse News Service, called the Contiguglias "foremost among today's duo-pianists." Richard and John were born of Italian immigrant parents in Auburn, NY, the last children, and second set of twins, in a family of seven children. Without a doubt, the most extraordinary musical event of the twins' youth was a performance in their home town, when they were 12 years old, of a group of two-piano pieces in the middle of a solo-piano recital by the legendary pianist-composer, Percy Grainger.
