Long live net.music.classical!

One area in which this group might be useful is the exchange of information
about music to *play* (I suspect most classical buffs play one or more
instruments).  Such contributions might describe a few favorite works,
their difficulty, and any particularly good or bad editions (one need not
bother to mention Schirmer).

I am always looking to expand my 4-hands repertoire.  My partner and I
already play many of the standards (e.g. the Schubert volume from Dover,
Ravel's Mother Goose Suite, various orchestral reductions) but we're
always looking for more.  One work which I can recommend without reservation
is Erik Satie's Three Pieces in the Form of a Pear, which is one of my
favorite things in all of music.  Except for a few measures, it is not hard.
Does anyone out there know of other obscure 4-hands gems?
