TubeNet

A friend of mine and I would like to play a duet at his senior recital in college and were in search of a Duet with substance. I do love the Sear books and some other out there, but we were looking for an actual piece, even with piano accompaniment possibly. Can anyone reccomend some good ones, or perhaps where to look. I do not know of too many recodings that have duets on them.. Thanks a bunch!

You might try www.rkingmusic.com you can search for pieces based on instrumentation.

you totally answered the question I asked!! However what I think I meant when I said "where to look" is "where can I hear" as in recordings of good duets and that sort of thing. I have found so many , but am not prepared to order blind, since that could get quite expensive with my spending habbits.

Try "Wonderland Duets", it's brilliant.

I think Deanna Swoboda recorded it a few years ago, and you can listen to some excerpts of the CD on walmart or amazon.com


cheers!


edit: forgot to add, it's for two tubas and Narrator. good luck!

I have used a book of Bach duets for "young" cellists, with students. They are good arrangements of Bach tunes, but I don't remember the publisher. If you want further info, I'll be glad to get it for you.

Take a look at the Nicolai horn duets. Just add three flats and pretend they are in bass clef. And if you really want a challenge, get Jim Self's arrangement of the Vivace from the Bach double violin concerto.
