Moritz Moszkowski (1854-1925) was a Prussion-born pianist and composer. He composed his five Spanish Dances, Op. 12 for piano four hands at the age of 17. They were an almost instant success and remain popular to this day. This arrangement by Joanne Martin is fully compatible with the violin and viola ensemble versions of Three Spanish Dances, so that any combination of violin, viola, and cello may play together.
