Francis Poulenc's Concerto pour deux pianos (Concerto for Two Pianos and Orchestra) in D minor, FP 61, was composed over the period of three months in the summer of 1932. It is often described as the climax of Poulenc's early period. The composer wrote to the Belgian musicologist Paul Collaer: "You will see for yourself what an enormous step forward it is from my previous work and that I am really entering my great period." The concerto was commissioned by and dedicated to the Princess Edmond de Polignac, an American-born arts patron to whom many early-20th-century masterpieces are dedicated, including Stravinsky's Renard, Ravel's Pavane pour une infante défunte, Kurt Weill's Second Symphony, and Satie's Socrate. Her Paris salon was a gathering place for the musical avant-garde.

- Le Concerto en ré mineur pour deux pianos et orchestre, FP 61, est une œuvre concertante de Francis Poulenc pour deux pianos et orchestre. Considérée comme une des dernières de sa première période, « c'est une œuvre gaie et directe » que Poulenc compose selon la mode de l'époque : « […] aux environs de 1930, c'était l'époque des retours à quelque chose. Retour à Bach chez Hindemith, à Tchaïkovski chez Stravinsky ». Selon Philippe Cassard, il emprunte non seulement à l'histoire de la musique occidentale (Saint-Saëns dans la toccata du début, des quasi contrepoints à la Bach, Rachmaninov dans l'écriture pianistique, trois citations de Mozart, une de Ravel, ci et là des tournures qui viennent de Stravinsky, Prokofiev ou Chopin), mais aussi la musique orientale de gamelan qu'il venait de décou (fr)

| text
| - The opening has a sonata-form exposition and recapitulation along with bits of once-popular chansons that complement the composer's own jaunty first and second subjects. The slow, sighing central section replaces a development group before Poulenc returns to the boulevards and boites.
The Larghetto pays homage to Mozart throughout... at one point Piano I leads in effect a musette, as if on a toy piano. The middle section becomes more impassioned, building to a sonorous climax before calm is restored.
Returning to the mood of the first movement, the finale begins with percussive flourishes before it takes off like an Alfa-Romeo in a Grand prix through the avenues and allées of day-and-night Paris, past marching bands and music halls. There is, however, an interlude lyrique et romantique when the Alfa stops for a bedroom tryst, where perfume and perspiration mix with the smoke from Gauloises, after which the race resumes, even more racily. (en)
- Poulenc’s generally light style is marked by a range of traits: simple, tuneful melodic ideas of narrow range and short duration; lively rhythmic content often using ostinatos and a fluidity of changing meters; clear, transparent textures with little contrapuntal writing; an essentially diatonic tonal language spiced by some dissonance; and clear forms, occasionally involving cyclical recall of thematic material.
