I was able to adapt When I Survey Ensemble to a two piano arrangement. I know not every church has three pianos in addition to flute and clarinet but hope this arrangement of When I Survey will be more feasible for the church pianist(s).
We have two pianos (one grand plus one digital piano) at our church on opposite ends of the stage. I’m going to add strings and have one of our pianists play the digital for the strings. I’m bringing in two… 76 key keyboards and placing them facing me at the grand piano. The flutes and clarinet will play from the front pew facing the pianos. I have found it easier to stay together when positioning the instruments as close as possible to each other with the pianists facing each or maybe side view (depending on the space) in order to see each other’s movements for unified playing.

Here’s a very festive sounding two piano Christmas arrangement which I wrote last year. I already published it on Sheet Music Plus last year and just now remembering to plug it into my online store. I thoroughly enjoyed playing this duo with a friend on facebook live a year ago. I’ve included a video of myself playing with my keyboard recording 🙂
