Lots of fun if youre a Star Wars fan!
I bought this for my sister and I to play, and it is fun to learn the popular tune that many people recognize. I think the difficulty level is good; it isnt easy and boring, but it also is not ridiculously technical and hard.

sounds good
This is a nice duet. Well written. You can use it with two students who are not at the same skill level. A player needs to be playing intermediate music to be able to play the Primo part. The hardest part of the Primo is the middle section of the piece where the Primo part is playing sixteenth notes, alternating between hands (same notes, but an octavo apart on the keyboard and a sixteenth note apart in time). The player need to be very comfortable with ledgar lines above the treble clef, because there is a lot of them. The first and last part tend to be easier because most people are very familiar with the melody/rhythm of that part and because of repetitions of the main theme. The Secondo part is mostly playing octaves or chords and keeping the march feeling going and really helps the piece sound full and imposing. The Secondo part can be played by someone a little less skilled than the Primo player and can easily be simplified if necessary. The piece is fun to play and the players can make the song even more fun to perform by wearing the appropriate Star Wars attire. To have even more fun with this piece have StormTroopers march with their light sabers (i.e. Boomwhackers) and play the Secondo part (or a simplified version of it). This is a great recital piece. Works very well for costumed, ensemble recitals.
