Aram Khachaturian : Waltz from “Masquerade” (VAAP Edition)

Piano Duet – One Piano, Four Hands

Description:
This celebrated waltz from Aram Khachaturian's incidental music to the play “Masquerade” is arranged for one piano, four hands. Originally composed in 1941, the piece has since become one of the most recognizable classical waltzes in concert repertoire. This authorized edition belongs to the “Library of Russian-Soviet Music” series and is suitable for advanced pianists seeking rich, expressive ensemble material.

About the Composer:
Aram Khachaturian (1903–1978) was a Soviet-Armenian composer whose distinctive style fuses traditional Armenian musical elements with Western classical structures. Best known for his ballets “Gayane” and “Spartacus,” as well as this iconic “Masquerade Waltz,” Khachaturian's music remains a staple in the orchestral and piano literature.

Performance Tips:
This arrangement for piano duet requires careful coordination between the primo and secondo players, especially in dynamic balance and phrasing. The piece’s sweeping melodic line and rhythmic lilt offer an excellent opportunity to develop ensemble timing and dramatic expression. Pay close attention to pedal usage and rubato passages for optimal musicality.
