Intermediate Classic Duets for Descant and Treble Recorders

From the Publisher

In the Intermediate Classic Duets for Descant and Treble Recorders there are a few easier pieces but most explore the range of notes and techniques expected of players that are Grades 4-6, and some are quite tricky! The pieces are arranged for players of equal standard, so each player gets to play the tune!

There are 22 pieces in Intermediate Classic Duets for Descant (Soprano) and Treble (Alto) Recorders, some are longer, but most are short – one page, several are two or three pages. We’ve tried to be as varied as possible and have included both classical and traditional tunes, slow and fast pieces, easy and difficult, ones to play straight away and others to work on, but we hope you find them all enjoyable and fun.

Arrangements include extracts from: Beethoven’s Für Elise, Prokofiev’s The Duck from Peter and the Wolf, Dvorák’s Humoresque, Holst’s Jupiter from The Planets, Loch Lomond, Grieg’s Morning from Peer Gynt, Elgar’s March from Pomp and Circumstance, Chopin’s Prelude Op.28, Boccherini’s Minuet, Bizet’s Air de Toréador from Carmen, Beethoven’s Minuet in G, Glinka’s Intermezzo, Tchaikovsky’s Andante Cantabile from Symphony No.5, Brahms’ Waltz Op.39 and more, some of which we expect you’re unlikely to know because we wanted to include an element of musical exploration and adventure.
