Tommy Pederson: Ten duets for tenor trombone and bass trombone.

My brother and I have played these, me on tuba playing the bass trombone part, he on bass trombone, playing the tenor part. Really a blast! They will keep you on your toes as well. Never assume a phrase will repeat! They may look the same at first glance, but the aren't. The bass part can get a bit high.

Pederson also has books of 10 bass trombone duets. These are fun too. There is also a book of 10 tenor trombone duets. I haven't played these.

Have fun

To play some fun stuff in a style that we don't get too often orchestrally, grab some cello duets by Mozart or Haydn. There are numerous the parts stay in bass clef, or you could also build your chops by learning tenor clef this way.

The Hawkins Duets of Symphonic Masterworks (I think they are already for Tenor Trombone and Tuba)

the Kling Duos book is for Tenor and Bass Bones (all B.C.)

the Uber Petit Duos for Tenor and Bass

the Yeo arrangements of the Shastakovich Preludes, Also Tenor and Bass Bones

And I second the Pederson Duets... they are great!

All these are available from Hickeys
