"First published as Zwillinghafte Geb'arden: Zur kulturellen Wahrnehmung des vierh'anding Klavierspiels im neunzehnten Jahrhunder by K'onigshausen & Neumann GmbH, W'urzburg, 2009."
This book surveys the cultural perception of four-hand piano playing in the nineteenth century. As the piano became a central institution of the bourgeois household and as piano transcriptions created a stable canon of classic works, four-hand playing became a ubiquitous and structurally important buttress of domestic life, provoking reflections in the literature, philosophy, journalism and the visual arts of the age.
