Publisher's Synopsis
Scroll down for a video sampling of the score of some of the duets as played in Finale.Looking for literature for a wedding? Pair this volume with others in the Wedding Collection (Volume II and the Handel "Water Music" collection) for a total of 3 dozen works and well over an hour of music appropriate both before and after the wedding ceremony. Each duet includes interchangeable parts for each of the following instrument groupings: C Instruments in Treble Clef (flute, oboe, violin, viola, keyboard, etc.); Bb Instruments in Treble Clef (Bb clarinet and trumpet, tenor sax); Eb Instruments in Treble Clef (alto sax, baritone sax, alto clarinet, etc.); F Instruments in Treble Clef (F horn); C Instruments in Bass Clef (trombone, baritone, tuba, bassoon, cello, etc.); Low C Instruments in Bass Clef (tuba, string bass, etc.)The duet parts are transposed in concert key. You will find six pairings of like-instrument transposition that form individual scores. But better, this volume can be used to create combinations in which, for example, one C Flute could be paired with one Bb Clarinet or any other preferred instrument to form a duet. Any numbers of players could be assigned to the duet parts to create flexibly-paired small ensembles. These duets work well in any environment, especially outdoor settings where keyboards might be impractical. Place this volume in your files. The purchaser is free to make copies of parts for rehearsal and performance purposes for years to come.
