Duets are great for musical development. They're also great fun! The trouble is, there aren't a lot of duets available for beginning and intermediate musicians. The Lipslur.com Duets for Band and Orchestra are here to solve that problem. The first volume of 50 duets contains famous hymns, Christmas carols, and patriotic songs like "Amazing Grace," "Joy to the World," and "My Country, 'Tis of Thee." They are in a comfortable range for each instrument. Additionally, there are YouTube videos of professional musicians playing these parts - just go to YouTube and search for lipslur.com. You can even put these duets together with other books in the series to make trios and quartets. For example, if you put the first flute, second alto sax, second tenor sax, and second trombone parts together, you would have four-part harmony! Whether you're playing the parts by yourself, playing with your friends or your teacher, or playing along with the videos, we know this music will help you improve and have fun at the same time.
