2台のピアノのための協奏曲
Castanets were used to evoke a Spanish atmosphere in Georges Bizet's opera, "Carmen". They are also found in the "Dance of the Seven Veils" from Richard Strauss' opera "Salome" and in Richard Wagner's "Tannhäuser". An unusual variation on the standard castanets can be found in Darius Milhaud's "Les Choëphores", which calls for castanets made of metal. Other uses include Rimsky-Korsakov's "Capriccio espagnol", Ravel's "Rapsodie espagnole", Francis Poulenc's "Concerto for Two Pianos and Orchestra in D minor" and Karl Jenkins's "Tangollen".
